IPDS Feature
IPDS Emulation Mode
Select which type of printer you want IPDS to support. You can choose either
to emulate a 4234 or you can choose 6408/6412. You should choose which
mode you use based on your software applications. For instance, if you are
using PSF/MVS, then you would choose 6408/6412 as PSF/MVS provides
support for this printer.
•
4234 . (the default.) IPDS supports 4234 printer functions. This is the
default which should be used most often. If you are using IPDS with PSF
applications, except PSF/MVS, make sure you select 4234.
Please review Chapter 3, “IPDS Commands Reference” in your 6400
IPDS Programmer’s Reference Manual for information on using IPDS
commands when you select 4234 from the IPDS Emulation Mode menu.
•
6408/6412 . IPDS supports 6408/6412 printer functions. Use this value
when you are using IPDS with PSF/MVS. This value enables IPDS and
PSF/MVS to take advantage of 6408/6412 printer functions which are
supported directly by PSF/MVS. Other PSF applications only support this
printer as a 4234 printer.
Please review Chapter 4, “IPDS Command Differences” in your 6400
IPDS Programmer’s Reference Manual for information on using IPDS
commands when you select 6408/6412 from the IPDS Emulation Mode
menu.
NOTE: If you want to use the value 6408/6412 as the default value, you will
need to select 6408/6412 as the default, save the value as a custom
set, and then power the printer off and back on again.
Postnet Barcode Width
Determines the width of Postnet bar code. This option applies to non-rotated
Postnet bar codes.
•
Standard . (the default.) Postnet bar codes are printed at the standard
width.
•
Narrow . Postnet bar codes are printed with a narrow width.
NOTE: The printer caches bar codes to improve performance. Therefore, to
change this configuration value, you will need to select the desired
setting, save the value in a custom set, then power the printer off and
then prewar the printer back on.
