ASCII to Postscript The AXIS 5400 logical printers can translate ASCII print data into Conversion PostScript format. This makes it possible to print with a PostScript
printer from a host that does not support PostScript. The conversion is selected by activating a filter that converts ASCII data into Postscript. This filter can be activated individually for each logical printer.
Activate your desired filter by setting the Printing Language
Translation (PRx_FILT) parameter.
Example: Follow the instructions below to convert ASCII print data to PostScript for logical printer PR2:
1.Select the Printer2 Web page.
2.Set the Printer Language Translation parameter to POSTSCR.
3.Click the Submit Printer2 settings button.
If you select the parameter value AUTO_PS, the print data for every print job is searched and if any ASCII data is found, it is translated into PostScript. This setting is recommended if you are not sure if the print data is ASCII or PostScript.
PostScript Settings When a logical printer is set for PostScript conversion, you must specify the following:
•page size
•page orientation
•page formats
•which font is to be used
