CHAPTER 2 — ADVANCED CONFIGURATION

Page 2-9

Printer Configuration (Group 40-50)

Configuring the printer port can be as simple as loading the configuration from the 5250 ALLY flash memory. This configuration specifies the format information, translation tables, PFS codes, GFIDs and timing values appropriate for the printer. Once the printer configuration is loaded, the user may change any of these settings. Do not change any printer port settings before loading a printer configuration, because loading a configuration will overwrite all printer port settings.

If the user’s printer is not among those listed below, the user should load the Generic configuration. If the Generic configuration is unsuitable, either the user will have to build a configuration from scratch, defining all of the options in this section, or the user will have to load a configuration and change any of the options in this section that are not appropriate for the user’s printer.

40 — Loading a Printer Configuration

Each of the following commands will load one of the available printer port configurations:

!AGILE!40=00; Xerox 3700 printer in ASCII mode

!AGILE!40=01; Xerox 3700 printer in EBCDIC mode

!AGILE!40=02; Xerox 4030 printer in ASCII mode

!AGILE!40=03; Xerox 4030 printer in EBCDIC mode

!AGILE!40=04; Xerox 4045 printer in ASCII mode

!AGILE!40=05; Xerox 4045 printer in EBCDIC mode

!AGILE!40=06; Xerox 4197 printer in ASCII mode

!AGILE!40=07; Xerox 4197 printer in EBCDIC mode

!AGILE!40=08; Xerox 4235 printer in ASCII mode

!AGILE!40=09; Xerox 4235 printer in EBCDIC mode !AGILE!40=0B; Xerox 4235 printer in Production Print mode

(emulating a centralized printer) using the EBCDIC character set

!AGILE!40=0C; Xerox 4700 color printer in ASCII mode !AGILE!40=0D; Xerox 4700 color printer in EBCDIC mode !AGILE!40=0E; ASCII diagnostic. A diagnostic configuration

for ASCII printers that prints the name of each PFS as it is invoked by the data stream, rather than using the PFSs to format the document

!AGILE!40=0F; EBCDIC diagnostic. A diagnostic configuration for EBCDIC printers that prints the name of each PFS as it is invoked, rather than using the PFSs to format the document
