Undefined Char Sub
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 text is 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.
Override Host
Determines whether the printer executes certain commands sent by the host,
or continues to use the current printer settings. The following host commands
are ignored when OVERRIDE HOST is enabled: line length, forms length,
lines per inch (LPI), characters per inch (CPI), print quality, and text
orientation (i.e. left to right). When OVERRIDE HOST is enabled, these
settings retain their operator panel settings.
NOTE:
Host margin and tab settings will be used whether or not OVERRIDE
HOST is enabled.
•
Disable
(the default). Allows certain host commands (line length, forms
length, LPI, CPI, print quality, and text orientation) to override operator
panel settings. Note that the information appearing on the message
display may
not
match the data stream setting. No values will change
upon initial selection of the disable option.
•
Enable
. Permits operator panel settings to override host data stream
commands.
