2-7 About the Printer
Lineprinter Emulation
The Lineprinter emulation prints simple byte-oriented line printer files.
A byte-oriented line printer handles jobs consisting of a series of
bytes where lines are delimited by carriage return and line feed char-
acters as opposed to a mainframe record-oriented line printer where
each record begins with a printer carriage control character. Refer to
the
QMS Crown Technical Reference Manual for additional informa-
tion about Lineprinter emulation.
