Printronix P7000 user manual VFU Select, Alt. Set 80-9F, Control Code default Printable

P-Series Emulation

P-Series SFCC

This parameter allows you to select which ASCII codes will function as the Special Function Control Code (SFCC) command delimiter. P-Series codes can use hex 00 through hex 7F. Options include the following:

•ESC (hex 1B)

•SOH (hex 01)

•ETX (hex 03)

•CIRCUMFLEX (hex 5E)—also called caret (^)

•TILDE (hex 7E)—(~)

NOTE: SOH, ETX, and ESC are non-printables. The characters (^)

and (~) are printable; however, do not use them as printables in the host data stream if either is chosen as a delimiter because print errors will occur.
