Configuration Menus

Buffer Print

When enabled, the BUFFER PRINT parameter prints the EBCDIC data and

control codes received from the host as hex values. Refer to Chapter 6

for

information on how to obtain a hex code printout.

Translation Table

TRANSLATION TABLE prints out a table of the coax interface’s current character

set. This operation is valid only when the coax interface is selected.

Column 132 Wrap

When enabled, this option causes the printer to line wrap at 132 characters

despite the current print density allowing more characters per line.

PA1

PA1 is only valid when the printer is in the NOT READY state and the coax

System Network Architecture Character Set (SCS) data stream is active. This

function displays the “PA1 ENABLED” message when the ENTER key is pressed

and sends a special operator request to the host when the printer is made

READY. Refer to the

Programmer’s Reference Manual

for more information

about SCS.

PA2

PA2 is only valid when the printer is in the NOT READY state and the coax SCS

data stream is active. This function displays the “PA2 ENABLED” message when

the ENTER key is pressed and sends a special operator request to the host

when the printer is made READY.

Buffer Reprint

This option is valid only when the printer is printing in SCS mode. When the

ENTER key is pressed, “Buffer Reprint Enabled” is displayed and an Intervention

Required status is sent to the host. Pressing ENTER again cancels the Buffer

Reprint function and “Buffer Reprint Disabled” is displayed.
