VFU Enable
A Vertical Format Unit is a means for loading sets of vertical tabs. These vertical
tabs define various parameters of a form and apply only to the emulations
which make explicit use of the VFU channels. Setting this to Enabled causes
the printer to use the last loaded EVFU instead of using the Form Length, Top
Margin, and Bottom Margin settings. When an EVFU is loaded, this parameter
is automatically set to Enabled. The default is Disabled.
VT Channel (Vertical Tab Channel)
You can select which VFU Channel is designated as the Vertical Tab Channel.
This parameter applies only to the emulations which make explicit use of the
VFU channels. Options are 1 - 12 and Unused. The default depends on the
emulation as defined in the table on page 3-57 under Ser/Par Emulation.
Skip When
This parameter applies only to the emulations which make explicit use of the
VFU channels. It designates where the Skip Length distance will begin - before
or after the Bottom of Form channel. The Skip location is determined by using
the designated Bottom-of-Form Channel in the downloaded VFU. The Skip
When only functions when the VFU Environment is Enabled. The default
depends on the emulation as defined in the table on page 3-57 under Ser/Par
Emulation.
