Macros
==============
Introduction: 
	A Macro is a group of PCL commands and/or data created by the user that
is downloaded and stored in the printer.  Once stored in the printer, a macro 
can be invoked upon request(Using the assigned macro ID number), using a single
command.  When printing letters, for example, which include a company 
letterhead, the letterhead is repeated for each letter.  This letterhead can be
created as a macro and stored in the printer.  Thus, whenever the letter is 
printed a macro command, sent to the printer, initiates the command sequences 
to printer, initiates the command sequence to print the letterhead.
	Macros eliminate the need to download the same information repeatedly,
thus saving transmission time.  However, the trade-off is that they consume 
user memory.  If memory usage is a concern, a possible solution might be to add
more memory or a HP custom macro cartridge.  Custom macros can be written and 
stored in ROM(read only memory), such as font-type cartridges.  When ROM-based
macros are installed in the printer, they become available for selection.  
There is no need to download the macro and no user memory is consumed.
	Hewlett-Packard provides a service to assist you by developing these
custom products.  For information contact:
