Undefined Character Substitution
UNDEFINED CHARACTER SUBSTITUTION specifies the replacement
character to print in place of any unprintable character that is received from
the host. The character becomes the printer default when:
•
The printer is powered off and then powered on.
•
An SGEA command specifies to use the operator panel default.
•
The “UNDEFINED CHARACTER REPORTING” option is disabled.
The character code point can be set to the following values:
•
60 (the default)
•
40 – FE (HEX)
Print Text Direction
Specifies the direction in which characters are printed on the page. This
allows the printer to print languages which are printed right to left instead of
left to right.
•
Left to Right (the default).
•
Right to Left. When a right to left language is selected, the host will be
notified of print direction changes when the printer is put online.
Intervention Required
Select from the following:
•
Not Send To Host (the default)
•
Send To Host. The printer sends a signal to the host computer when any
of the following occur:
•
Printer faults occur.
•
Hold mode time–out occurs.
If not selected, the printer will only send the signal on printer faults that cause
data loss (paper jam, ribbon stall, online platen open, etc.).
