Transparency
IBM PC Support Virtual Printer is one way of sending data transparent to the
printer. This method is always active and is not described in this guide.
This section describes the Intermate LX T-04 specific transparency methods.
The Transparency function allows you to send data directly to your printer
without any conversion (pass-through). The data could be ASCII printer
commands unsupported by the interface (eg underlined text), or even
downloaded fonts.
Be careful when using the Transparency function for generating printable
characters, selecting fonts or making text positioning. The Intermate LX T-04
supports these functions in normal emulation mode, and your settings may be
overridden by the system.
There are two types of Transparency, Single-byte and Multi-byte. The function
is accessed in Extended Emulation Mode.
The Single-byte Transparency function is called by a percent sign in your
document ('%') and it passes through one subsequent ASCII byte
(hexadecimal).
The Multi-byte function is started by two successive percent signs. When the
start sequence ('%%') is found, the Intermate LX T-04 assumes hexadecimal
data until a terminating percent sign occurs.
