Format
DXPG side;
Parameter
side:
a number representing the side of the ensuing page:
0 = Select next side (the same as form feed)
1 = Select front side
2 = Select back side
Function
The DXPG command is effective only when the option duplexer is installed to the
printing system. It ends printing on the current page in the same manner as a form feed.
However, unlike the form feed, it also selects the paper side, front or back, on which
printing of the ensuing page is printed.
The side parameter 1 prints the ensuing page begins on the front side of the next sheet,
regardless of whether the current page was printed on the front or back side of the current
sheet.
The side parameter 2 prints the ensuing page begins on the back side of the current sheet
if the current page was printed on the front side, or on the back side of the next sheet if
the current page was printed on the back side.
