PRINT BIN Options
The BIN options control the feeding of paper from either of the two bins
of the cut-sheet feeder available with the Tandem 5530 letter-quality
printer. If the printer you’re using isn’t a 5530 or doesn’t have a cut-
sheet feeder attached, TFORM issues a warning message and ignores a
PRINT BIN command.
If you enter simply PRINT BIN without specifying any options, the BIN
option applies to all pages following the command (rather than, for
example, the first page, odd pages, or even pages).
PRINT BIN with no options at all resets everything to the default.
PRINT BIN FIRST
This command tells TFORM to print only page 1 of the document
from the specified bin.
PRINT BIN ODD
This command tells TFORM to print the ODD pages from the
specified bin 3, 5, 7, and so on. If you want ODD to include page
1, use the keyword ALL PRINT BIN ALL ODD.
PRINT BIN EVEN
This command refers to pages 2, 4, and so on, and tells TFORM to
print all EVEN pages from the specified bin.
