|
Command: | Transparent (TRN) |
Format: | 35 nn [data] |
Printers: | 4214, 5224, 5225 |
Action: | Causes the printer to enter a transparent printer mode, |
| where the subsequent nn characters are not checked for |
| control codes. |
| This command allows printing of the bit images |
| previously associated with control characters by the Load |
| Alternate Characters (LAC) command. |
| The count parameter, nn, unlike the count parameter for |
| format commands, does not include the count byte itself. |
| The count parameter is the count of following bytes not |
| to be checked for SCS/DCA control codes. |
IBMEMUL: | The OPTIMA allows data to be sent directly to the |
| printer (or other output device) with this command. |
| After receiving the Transparent command, it sends the |
| following nn bytes directly out the output port. |
| Unlike the ASCII Transparent (ATRN) mode, |
| Transparent data is translated before it is sent to the |
| target printer. |
275EMUL: | Same as IBMEMUL. |
|
|
Command: | Numeric Backspace (NBS) |
Format: | 36 |
Printers: | 5219 |
Action: | This command is the same as Back Space (BS). |
IBMEMUL: | Same as IBM. |
275EMUL: | No operation. |
