paperSource

Description

Specifies the paper source (tray) for HTML print-outs by its string name.

ScriptX tries to find the longest string match amongst the list of available paper source names for the current printer. Read back the paperSource value to see the actual result.

If the printer does not support alternative sources, an error is thrown. To avoid such errors, use the paperSource2 property.

This is a read/write property.

Syntax

printing.paperSource = sPaperSource

Example
