Chapter 3 IGP/VGL Emulation
Ignore Chars
•Disable. Character filtering is not enabled.
•Char 1. Character 1 will be filtered. Select the option “Ignore Ch#1” to specify character 1.
•Char 2. Character 2 will be filtered. Select the option “Ignore Ch#2” to specify character 2.
•Char 1&2. Characters 1 & 2 will be filtered. Select the options “Ignore ch#1” and “Ignore Ch#2” to specify values for these characters.
Ignore Ch#1
Specifies character 1 for the character filtering option. Valid decimal values are from 0 through 255.
Ignore Ch#2
Specifies character 2 for the character filtering option. Valid decimal values are from 0 through 255.
Data Bit 8
•Enable. The PI line is not passed directly from host to printer; all 8 bits are used for data bits, and characters in the hex
•Disable. When the host PI line is enabled, data bit 8 internally indicates PI line status. To use the PI line, disable data bit 8, and enable the Host PI configuration option (under the PI Control option, below).
NOTE: Data bit 8 is interpreted as either data bit 8 or PI signal, but never both. When enabled as data bit 8, data bit 8 has priority over the PI signal, and all data above hex 7F is used to access character data and not to interpret PI line data.
Conversely, when data bit 8 is disabled and the PI signal is used, data bit 8 of the data is reserved for use as the PI function, and you cannot access characters in the hex
