Hi Alex,
Not sure this is correct. PORT 9100 is traditionally used for RAW
protocol ( similar to LPR but data is simply sent differently ). To get
information from a Printer Device i.e. MFP a second protocol SMB gets
used.
The PJL commands are simply used as printer instructions, so can be
used for Job Ticketing, General Info ( Title, Colour spacing etc. ). So
simply see it as a JOB CONTROLLER and not a DEVICE STATUS
The OCE printer doesn't comply to all the HP PJL syntax. Most of it
actually gets ignored. But this does depend on the model as OCE do have
a huge range ( small to large ). The LARGER devices prefer AFP so any
input gets converted/transformed. The smaller devices do have native
PostScript/PCL engines or external RIPS.
Hope it helps!
Clinton

And also it is possible to get COPYPAGECOUNT value using PJL for MFP?
And color printouts?
Or it is possible only using MIB's?
It is possible to send PJL commands to OCE printers and retrieve
answer?
For HP use 9100 port to get printer information (PAGECOUNT and
other)
