Problems with printer output
When you use transparent printing you may obtain incorrect printer outp ut due to the
following reasons;
Graphics printers may misinterpret some characters out put through transparent print. This
problem is more likely if the terminal is in 7-bit mode, because 8-bit characters will not be
printed.
Some terminals suppress the output of certain characters to their pri nter or AUX ports. Such
terminals can prevent essential control characters f rom reaching the printer thus generating
incorrect printer output. This occurrence is extremely unp redictable because of the large
number of potential hardware configurations.
