Xerox FS 3270, User's Guide

If all three (a. b. and c.) are in order, contact your systems support personnel or your dealer.

PCL driver:

The default configuration of the interface will suffice for most application programs and uses. You should only change the configuration if you have special requirements.

If you should wish to change the configuration, the options may be set from the line as described in the Programmer's Guide; document no. D62078, subpart D62030

FSL Driver

With the FSL driver you have selected an unprogrammed printer driver. You have to program the internal setup of the box to suit your printing requirements. See Programmer's Guide; document no. D62078, subpart D62071 for further details.

2.4.1.Testing

1.Power the unit ON.

2.Turn the rotary switch to the “T” position and back to the original position. This will generate a settings printout.

3.When the switch has been turned back to its original position, the CU indicator will start flashing for approximately 30 seconds.

4Turn the rotary switch to the “T” position once again while the CU indicator is flashing. The unit will now enter Online HEX dump mode. The dump mode is terminated by turning the switch away from the “T” position and back into the “T” position.

NOTE:

The CU indicator will be blinking rapidly while the rotary switch is in the “T” position. This is an indication that the “T” position is not a valid permanent position.

5.Compare the test printout (FSL or PCL printout) with the rele vant printout in Chapter 10, Test Printout.
