as it is invoked by the data stream, rather than using
the PFS to format the document
_EPSONFX Epson FX printer

Output Port Configuration
If the printer is in the list of supported printer configurations, configuring
the output ports can be as simple as loading the appropriate configuration
as indicated in Chapter 1  Getting Started. If the user would like to
modify the configuration for the printer, the user should first load it from
the diskette, then refer to later chapters for instructions on the specific
features to be modified, including translation tables, PFSs and GFIDs.
If the printer is not listed in the supported configurations, and if the
_GENERIC configuration option is unsuitable, the user will either have to
build a configuration from scratch or modify a similar one that is listed in
the supported configurations. Then save the port configuration.
Parallel Output Port
If building a parallel output port configuration, the output port must be
activated, translation tables must be chosen and programmable function
strings must be edited. Detailed information on all of these features can be
found in later chapters.
