Special Formatting Problems

This section discusses some additional issues regarding data stream conflicts.

Font Downloading

XES mode printers require a special translation table to be used when downloading sixelized data to the printer. When downloading an EBCDIC- encoded font from the host System through the 5250 ALLY, no special setup or handling are required. The 5250 ALLY automatically changes to the correct translation table for the duration of the sixelized data, and returns to the current translation table after the sixelized data.

The 5250 ALLY automatically strips all SCS control and formatting commands for the duration of the font download regardless of whether or not PFS and/or FF suppression are active.

UDK Character Conflict

The UDK character is a shared resource. Each data stream sent to the printer is responsible for defining the UDK character at the beginning of the data stream, and using a s+Xd command to undefine the character at the end of the data stream. Failure to follow these rules can cause a UDK character conflict.

An example of this type of conflict is illustrated by the following sequence of events:

1.A job from one source defines the UDK character.

2.A job from another source redefines the UDK character.

3.A second job from the first source expects the same UDK character defined in step 1 to be active.

Data stream number 3 is not following the rules, but this is not an uncommon problem. Here is an example of another common problem:
