LONGEDGE (book) binding is the conventional side-to-side

Jobseparate
=none
TRAY1
TRAY2
TRAY3
Lets you dedicate an input tray to be used for job separation
sheets. "none" indicates that the job separation feature is not
enabled. Job separation sheets are usually colored paper.
When your print job contains a job separation command, the
printer will pick a sheet of paper from the designated tray and
insert it into the print job. No text is printed on the job
separation page. This feature can be used with the joboffset
feature if an HCO is connected.
*Joboffset
=OFF
ON
Enables the HCO offset (jogging) feature, which staggers
finished jobs for easy separation.
*HCI-Alias
TRAY1
TRAY2
TRAY3
=HCI
This setting redirects the HCI to act like tray1, tray2, tray3, or
like itself. It is provided primarily to make the D640 HCI act
just like an HP LaserJet IIIsi or 4si with an HCI, so jobs
configured for a LaserJet print correctly on the D640 without
modification.
To match a IIIsi or a 4si, change HCI-Alias to tray2. This will
cause all print job commands for tray2 (or lower tray) to pick
paper from the D640 HCI.
For more information, see “Configuring for LaserJet IIIsi and
4si Compatibility” on page 6-24.
Emulation
Allows you to select the printer emulation protocol. The selections are:
Auto - automatically selects PCL or PostScript* based on the print job data.
HEX - prints a "hexadecimal dump" of the print (used for troubleshooting).
PCL - is the standard PCL5e (4si) emulation protocol.
PS - is the optional PostScript* Level 2 emulation protocol.
