Proprinter and Line Printer environments are supported, but native Proprinter commands are not supported.
SEM 0 = Line Printer
SEM 1 = IBM Proprinter X-24E
SEM 2 = Diablo 630
SEM 5 = Epson LQ-850
SEM 6 = HP LaserJet III PCL 5e
SEM 7 = HP 7475A (Plotter)
In Kyocera printers, the FRPO P1 parameter is used to select the printer default emulation when the printer is first
turned on. A particular page of a print job can be a mixture of the selected emulation data stream and PRESCRIBE.
Notes:
•
The PRESCRIBE emulation option only supports PCL 5e, although the PRESCRIBE print environment may be
initialized for Proprinter or Line Printer by using the SEM or FRPO commands. For more information, see “P1:
Default emulation” on page 15.
•
PCL 5e emulation for the PRESCRIBE emulation option is designed to be compatible with HP PCL 5e, not
necessarily the Kyocera PCL 5e implementation.
SFA: Set bitmap Font Attributes
The supported executable parameters of this command include: hmi, vmi, and spacing type. The nonexecutable
parameters (rotation, symbol set, height, italic, weight, typeface, and font type) are not supported. The nonexecutable
parameters may affect best-fit font selections, and could result in the PRESCRIBE emulation option selecting a different
font than Kyocera.
SIMG: Set IMaGe model
This command controls the transparency and opaqueness of images and patterns. Six different operating modes are
defined. The PRESCRIBE emulation option supports modes 3, 4, 5, and 6. Modes 1 and 2 are not supported.
STAT: STATus
This command can verify if the PRESCRIBE emulation option is properly installed to match the Kyocera setup of the
account. The STAT page only displays the FRPO settings that are supported by the PRESCRIBE emulation option.
To print a STAT page, send this:
!R! STAT; EXIT;
A STAT page is also printed when a Menu Settings test page is printed.
