OSX印表機紙張

cups使用PPDS檔案來對每個印表機進行功能配置設定。使用者可以通過修改PPDs檔案來對每個印表機進行特殊配置。這裡是一個例子。

每個印表機預設地支援若干的類型的紙張類型和大小，可能很長，在使用者選擇的時候會不太方便，那麼可以通過修改PPDs檔案來把這個列表縮短。

找到*DefaultPaperDimension,後面是鎖支援的每個紙張大小的定義和說明，而且支援每種語言自己的文字說明。只要是在不需要的紙張類型前面加一個%，就可以了。

比如

*%PaperDimension Executive/Executive: "522 756"

*%PaperDimension HalfLetter/Statement:"396 612"

*%PaperDimension B5/JIS B5: "516 729"

變更後的

變更後可以使用cupstestppd對該PPDs檔案進行檢測。

添加自訂的紙張，一種方法，讓使用者在列印介面中自己定義但是是目前使用者有效（當然也發行就緒給其它使用者，也可以做到本機登入使用者有效， 參見com.apple.print.custompapers檔案），或者變更PPDs這樣可以本機全域有效，添加的時候，需要添加如下的資訊

*PaperDimension Letter/Letter: "612 792"

*PageSize Letter/Letter: "

*PageRegion Letter/Letter: "

*ImageableArea Letter/Letter:
