1904.0. "Way to print odd/even pages?" by GRANMA::JHADEN () Fri Dec 04 1992 21:18

    I have a plain LN03.  I use All-In-One V3.0.
    
    Is there a way to print odd or even pages only?  
    I logged a call with my IM&T who couldn't identify a way;
    they suggested I ask in this note.  
    
    I'm trying to save paper by printing all odd, turning them
    over and then printing all even......to save paper/expense to
    DEC.  I do not have access to a duplex printer.

    Hello:
    
    I have seen this issue before in ALL-IN-1 (the other one is a diaper
    service - I think - we would not want to infringe on their trademark)
    and the approach involved splitting the pages into different files
    before printing.
    
    This involved a program to look for page breaks, etc..
    
    
    
    Is this a WPS-PLUS file?  If so you may want to check the WPS-PLUS
    conference.
    
    
    HTH,

1904.2LN03's don't like used paperWARNUT::RICEA human resourceTue Dec 08 1992 10:0811
    ** DO NOT ** put paper through an LN03 twice, please see your local IS
    or Printer Engineer for why this will cost more in maintenance costs
    than you will save (and remember LN03's cost's are already high because 
    of their age).
    
    I must admit I can't remember the exact reason, the memo was a long
    time ago   :-)    But I think it had something to do with the fusing
    unit.

>> it had something to do with the fusing unit

At a rough guess, as the first page goes over the fusing unit a second time, the
toner "melts" and sticks to the rollers...

1904.4It was worth a shot!GRANMA::JHADENTue Dec 08 1992 13:2911
    .1  Thanks Tim, my need is for both WPS-PLUS and normal A1 files
    .2  Thanks Steve, didn't know that.  I'm in a very small DEC facility,
        have only 1 LN03 and I am very protective of it.  It's been a
        great one, I'm very conscientious about servicing it.  I guess
        I've been lucky as I've been re-feeding all this time (not
        often though)
    .3  Thanks Scott, I'll keep it in mind.
    
    I guess at this point, there's no easy answer to my question.  Does
    anyone know how I would submit an enhancement request for a future
    version of A1?    Thanks.....Judy
1904.5Suggestion or write an assetAIMTEC::BUTLER_TTue Dec 08 1992 13:5112
    Judy,
    
    You can call your local CSC and submitt it as a suggestion.
    
    You can possibly get someone to fund your time to do this and
    it could become an asset package.  I think this way would be
    your best bet.
    
    While Andrew would remind me that Assets is a dirty word in
    the US at this time, I would hope we can start it up again, soon.
