Chapter 3 Coax/Twinax Emulation

SPC Type

Allows you to select a specific type of Simple Protocol Converter (SPC) Twinax emulation. Mode PTX NI is for Coax/Twinax interfaces, MODE 219 for Model 219 protocol converter, MODE P5000 for Printronix protocol convertor, and MODE IBM for the IBM protocol converter.

Printer Type

Determines the SPC Twinax emulation “Mode”. When set to Std Centronics, IGP/VGL, or IGP/PGL, the Set Line Density and Set Print Density commands are translated into a Carriage Return (CR) and vertical format commands are ignored unless the EVFU is enabled.

SFCC Char

Determines what character is printed when an EBCDIC Logical Not character ¬ (hex 5F) is received from the host.

EVFU

•Enable. The EVFU parameter allows vertical format control by the host in all four printer type modes.

•Disable. Vertical format control is only allowed in IMPACT/P-SERIES mode.

SPC Char Set

Allows you to select the print language character set.

Translation Table

Prints out a table of the twinax interface’s current character set. This operation is valid only when the twinax interface is selected.

Buffer Print

•Disable. The printer will print normally.

•Enable. The printer prints the EBCDIC data and control codes received from the host as hex values.
