4213 Laser Printer
User Guide Update
Printable area
The 4213 and HPLJ printers use slightly different printable areas
on a page. Some jobs, e.g. those without margins, may be
affected. On a letter size page, the HPLJ starts printing 50 dots
from the border of the page, while the 4213 starts printing at 40
dots.
Using the adjustable tray in the PostScript emulation
When using the adjustable tray with the PostScript emulation,
refer to the PostScript emulation section in the appendix for
appropriate page size requests.
Preventing paper jams or recurring messages using the adjustable paper tray
Refer to the section “Using the adjustable paper tray,” in
appendix A1, if you are having paper jams or recurring messages
while using the adjustable paper tray. This information will be
added to the Troubleshooting section in the next revision.
Saving Postscript configurations
Unlike either XES or LJ2D, PostScript emulation settings are saved
permanently by setting the emulation to ON and pressing
ONLINE. For example, if DUPLEX or TUMBLE is set to ON, and
ONLINE is pressed, the new settings have become permanent.
Powering off the printer does not affect the saving of the
changes.
Handling communication error messages
If any communication error messages (COMM ERR PRESS*)
appear on the user interface, the user must press the WARNING
(*) button to complete printing each time this message occurs.
The 4213 printer cannot be placed offline to make changes in the
configuration to correct the problem. The buffer must be
cleared of all data prior to making the configuration changes.
Fonts in landscape orientation
The font status sheet does not print a list of landscape fonts,
however all 4213 fonts are available in the landscape orientation.

4213 Laser Printer
Programmer Reference Update
LJ2D Paper Source commands and the high capacity feeder
When the optional high capacity feeder is installed and selected
as a paper source through the user interface, the Paper Source
commands as described in chapter 3 of the Xerox 4213 Laser
Printer Programmer Reference may select a different paper tray.
The following table illustrates these differences:
Table 1. Paper source values with high capcity feeder
selected
Tray sequence
(through user
interface) Paper source command effect
HCF The high capacity feeder is addressed as the default tray and is
accessed by the E &l0H command. All the other paper tray
source commands work as described in the 4213 Programmer
Reference.
HCF-TRAY1 The high capacity feeder is addressed as both the default tray
and tray 1; therefore, the HCF is accessed by either the E
&l0H or the E &l1H command. The paper tray 2 command (E
&l4H) works as described in the 4213 Programmer Reference.
HCF-TRAY2 The high capacity feeder is addressed as both the default tray
and tray 2; therefore, the HCF is accessed by either the E
&l0H or the E &l4H command. The paper tray 1 command (E
&l1H) works as described in the 4213 Programmer Reference.
HCF-TRAY1-2 The high capacity feeder is addressed as the default tray no
matter which paper source command (E &l0H, E &l1H, or E
&l4H) is sent.
Font selection
If “best fit” does not give the font you expect, choose the font
by font ID or define the correct criteria for the desired font.
