IBM 6500 manual Flush the data in the parallel port input and output buffers

Set Commands

set model from stored

Set all current model settings to the values stored in flash memory.

set prn [-]autofd Example: set prn -autofd

Assert or do not assert the AUTOFD line for carriage return insertion. This only affects printers that support this function, such as impact printers.

set prn flush

Flush the data in the parallel port input and output buffers.

set prn unlock

Release the access lock on the parallel port.

set prn timeout <int>none Example: set prn timeout none

Terminate the print job sent to the parallel port if it is not printed after the timeout period in minutes <int> expires. The <int> value ranges from 0 though 255, with 0 indicating no timing out to take place. This is the default setting and should be fine for most print setups.

set prn [-]opost Example: set prn -opost

Allow or disallow output processing on the parallel port such as carriage return insertion (e.g., onlcr).

set prn [-]onlcr Example: set prn -onlcr

Enable or disable carriage return insertion on the parallel port. This may be needed for Unix text jobs coming through with solitary linefeeds. This feature is almost always set at the model level rather than the I/O port level.

set prn xtab <int>none Example: set prn xtab none

Set the tabstop width as indicated by <int>. The range is 1 through 16 spaces.

set prn from default

Set all parallel port settings back to factory defaults.
