Action: This command resets all system-changeable settings to

Processing condition set (DP); an ic value of 01h
specifies the Word Processing condition set (WP).

An ic value of FFh also specifies a job boundary.
On the 3812, an ic parameter value of FFh causes the
output tray to be jogged (offset).
IBMEMUL: Same as the 3812.
When the 5250 ALLY receives this command with the ic
parameter set to FFh, it sends PFS 43 — JOGOUT to the
target printer. This PFS is usually used to jog (offset) the
output paper tray.
Besides the target printer settings that are reset by this
command, the 5250 ALLY also sends PFS 4B —
JOBSTRT to the target printer if the ic parameter is set to
FFh (DP). By default this PFS is unused. It can be used
to reset duplex or 2-up print modes at the target
