OVERVIEW AND PRINTER SETUP Page size The default page size is set with a 2-pin jumper ( ST1 ). The jumper is turned OFF by placing the jumper shunt over only 1 pin, as shown in the illustration at left. The jumper is turned ON by covering both pins. Turning the jumper OFF sets the page size default to U.
OVERVIEW AND PRINTER SETUP section of the “Utilities menu” chapter of the Xerox MRP Family System Administration Guide (refer to Figure 1-3 example).
OVERVIEW AND PRINTER SETUP FSL cross reference for the coax configuration page The default settings on the coax configuration page are printed using references to the FSL (Function Select via Line) command numbers. A list of the items that are printed on the configuration page is shown in table 1-2.
OVERVIEW AND PRINTER SETUP Printing of blank pages after downloading configuration and font data Your MRP Family usually prints a blank page after a configuration description or a font is downloaded from the Configuration and Resource Utility.
2. DSC and SCS data stream commands The emulated IBM printers support a range of data stream commands. Some commands are ignored by certain models, while others are implemented within the feature restrictions imposed by the particular printer. The data stream commands described in this chapter control the formatting of the printed data.
DSC AND SCS DATA STREAM COMMANDS Command summary and comparison Table 2-1 is a summary of DSC commands that the Xerox coax printer handles for the various printers emulated. Refer to the “Function Selection via Line (FSL) commands” chapter to check the commands corresponding to the DSC options.
DSC AND SCS DATA STREAM COMMANDS DSC command descriptions The descriptions of the DSC commands, shown in hexadecimal, are listed alphabetically. Carriage Return (CR) 05 Moves the print position to the left margin of the current line in an unformatted print field.
DSC AND SCS DATA STREAM COMMANDS Null (NUL) 00 This control code does not cause any printer function. In unformatted mode, the printer treats this code as a space for both print and nonprint fields. In formatted print or nonprinted fields, a null character is printed.
DSC AND SCS DATA STREAM COMMANDS SCS data stream structure The SNA Character String (SCS) has a relatively simple structure consisting of a 1-byte hexadecimal control code followed by the data to be printed. Multiple control codes can be inserted into SCS by printing applications in a specific order to achieve certain types of output.
DSC AND SCS DATA STREAM COMMANDS Supported SCS commands Table 2-3 shows the commands in hexadecimal, and presented alphabetically, supported by the different emulations for Systems Network Architecture (SNA) Character String (SCS).
DSC AND SCS DATA STREAM COMMANDS Table 2-3. SCS coax commands (continued) SCS command 3262 3268 3287 4214 3812/16 4028 4245 6262 Comment Page Presentation Media (PPM) 2BD2nn48xxxxxxsddoddxxxxxxxx • .
DSC AND SCS DATA STREAM COMMANDS Bell (BEL) 2F Turns on the attention indicator to show that operator action is required and sounds the alarm if it is not disabled. The printer stops and waits for operator attention. (This command is currently accepted but ignored.
DSC AND SCS DATA STREAM COMMANDS Remember • For the 3812 emulation, if the maximum page length is set to 1, the Form Feed command causes a new line to occur. Any other page length causes the printer to eject the current page on receipt of a form feed.
DSC AND SCS DATA STREAM COMMANDS Interchange Record Separator (IRS) 1E Moves the print position to the first position on the next line. If the current position is at the end of a page, the print position moves to the first line of the next page.
DSC AND SCS DATA STREAM COMMANDS Page Presentation Media (PPM) 2BD2nn48xxxxxxsddoddxxxxxxxx Specifies the presentation media device settings of the printer.
DSC AND SCS DATA STREAM COMMANDS Set Attribute (SA) 28ttvv SA specifies an attribute associated with subsequent characters in the data stream. The codes remain valid until a new SNA chain begins or a new SA code changes the value of the character attribute.
DSC AND SCS DATA STREAM COMMANDS Set Graphic Error Action (SGEA) 2BC803grop Defines the action to be taken when a character in the data stream is not in the currently selected character set and cannot be printed (an unprintable graphic character).
DSC AND SCS DATA STREAM COMMANDS Set Horizontal Format (SHF) 2BC1nnhhlmrmht...tn Defines the maximum number of characters per line, left margin, right margin, and horizontal tabs.
DSC AND SCS DATA STREAM COMMANDS lm (continued) A one-byte number that specifies the column value of the left most print position. If lm is a positive number but less than the maximum print position (MPP), the value is adopted as the left margin setting.
DSC AND SCS DATA STREAM COMMANDS Set Line Density (SLD) 2BC6nnld Defines the vertical space required for one print line (Lines Per Inch or LPI) overriding those set at the control panel.
DSC AND SCS DATA STREAM COMMANDS Set Print Density (SPD) 2BD2nn2900cp Defines the number of characters to print per horizontal inch (CPI) or characters per line (CPL).
DSC AND SCS DATA STREAM COMMANDS Set Vertical Format (SVF) 2BC2nnvvvtmbmvt1...tn Specifies the maximum number of lines per page, top margin, bottom margin, and vertical tabs.
DSC AND SCS DATA STREAM COMMANDS tm (continued) A one-byte number that specifies the first print line of the page If tm is a positive number, but less than or equal to the maximum page length (MPL), the value is adopted as the top margin setting. If tm is X'00' or nn is less than 3, defaults are used for the top margin.
DSC AND SCS DATA STREAM COMMANDS Transparent (TRN) 35nn Indicates the start of a transparent data stream. Since you define the data within a transparent stream, the printer does not scan the SCS data for control codes. A hyphen is substituted, however, for all codes below X'40.
DSC AND SCS DATA STREAM COMMANDS starting in line 4, you must enter four VCS commands. Unprintable characters appear on the paper as spaces. There are two different 3268 and 4214 emulations. When using the first 3268 and 4214 emulations, the system sends the number of Line Feed commands required by the selected Vertical Format command.
.
3. Function Selection via Line (FSL) commands This chapter describes the Function Selection via Line (FSL) commands. FSL sequences are special escape sequences which download settings to the printer. The command allows you to set up default interfaces or change default settings.
FUNCTION SELECTION VIA LINE (FSL) COMMANDS Table 3-1. Memory Exchange Settings Syntax Function <Esc>X1 Saves the temporarily defined settings in the permanent memory. <Esc>X2 Restores the settings from permanent storage. <Esc>X3 Restores the settings to factory default settings.
FUNCTION SELECTION VIA LINE (FSL) COMMANDS FSL escape character The coax interface for the Xerox MRP Family is managed by special escape sequences sent to the printer using the FSL commands. FSL escape sequences are command sequences preceded by a user-defined escape character.
FUNCTION SELECTION VIA LINE (FSL) COMMANDS Where @ is the single character used as the interface escape character and must be in the range X'40' to X'FF.' If a value of X'40' (space character) is used, then the current interface escape character is reset and no interface escape character is defined.
FUNCTION SELECTION VIA LINE (FSL) COMMANDS 3. Save the setting using the command <ESC> <X1>. FSL types All FSL commands begin with a leading escape character: • T —Test functions • W —Bar Code printing • X —Memory exchange • Y —Setup functions • Z —Sending of user strings.

FUNCTION SELECTION VIA LINE (FSL) COMMANDS n 1 0* Function is deactivated from next page boundary. Positioning is physical left margin 2/10". 1 Function is activated from next page boundary. Positioning is equal to IBM printers. Compensation for the physical left margin is always on.
FUNCTION SELECTION VIA LINE (FSL) COMMANDS Any result achievable by the use of other functions may also be carried out by the use of this function. A colon denotes that the next number is the HEX code number applied to the following escape sequence. You can have two levels of macros.
FUNCTION SELECTION VIA LINE (FSL) COMMANDS n 4 Symbol set can be 0—7 depending on the printer. n 5 Point size is the GFID number in decimal between 1 to 65535. If a GFID over 399 is defined with a non- proportional attribute, then the horizontal spacing (HMI) is calculated by dividing GFID with 100 (GFID/100).
FUNCTION SELECTION VIA LINE (FSL) COMMANDS Example 3 @Y91, 18, 0, 2, 1, 10@ is a syntax example in IBM Proprinter mode with the following settings: IBM GFID No.
FUNCTION SELECTION VIA LINE (FSL) COMMANDS Example @Y94, 01, 1B28733354@ selects the Courier typeface. Remember You do not actually need FSL Y92 through Y94 in order to support FSL Y91—GFID/Font Select Setup since the PCL strings for point size, attribute, symbol set, and typeface are generated by algorithm.
FUNCTION SELECTION VIA LINE (FSL) COMMANDS n 1 Valid values are: 0* Enable APO 1 Disable APO. For all n 1 values > 0, disable is selected. The default for coax interface is n 1 = 1. n 2 Valid values are: 1 Ignored 2 Tray 1 3 Tray 3 4 Manual feed 5 Tray 2 6 Tray 4 7-255 Reserved (optional feeder).
FUNCTION SELECTION VIA LINE (FSL) COMMANDS Y119—Enable/disable automatic paper size configuration @Y119, n @ Enables or disables Automatic Papersize Configuration logic. n The valid values are: 0 Disables the Automatic Papersize Configuration logic.
FUNCTION SELECTION VIA LINE (FSL) COMMANDS Y253—Allow passwords @Y253, n1, [n2]@ allows the use of passwords to be used in conjunction with FSL Y49. This FSL is only enabled in engineering mode (see Y249). n Values for n are: 0 Disable the use of passwords 1 Allow passwords Example Refer to the example used for Y49 in this document.
FUNCTION SELECTION VIA LINE (FSL) COMMANDS a page if a page format change code has been placed before the font change. Blanks, margin settings, and SCS commands are not treated as printable characters. Remember Discrepancies between the logical page commands (MPP, MPL) and the physical page size (A4, orientation, etc.
FUNCTION SELECTION VIA LINE (FSL) COMMANDS Figure 3-1. Page orientation algorithm—1 Default orientation of selected tray—portrait? Auto Page Orientation enabled? Will logical page fit on physical .
FUNCTION SELECTION VIA LINE (FSL) COMMANDS Logical Page Size The logical page size is used in Auto Page Orientation. Logical page length (LPL) and logical page width (LPW) determine the logical page size. Refer to Figure 3-2. LPL is governed by the top binding margin (TBM) and the length of the printable text.
FUNCTION SELECTION VIA LINE (FSL) COMMANDS Remember When operating in the SCS mode, the Set Horizontal Format commands override the MPP defaults. • Set Vertical Format command overrides MPL defaults. • Set Character Density command overrides CPI defaults.

FONT SUPPORT AND SELECTION Font selection via FSL in coax There are two methods to select fonts via FSL in coax: the Printer Resident Fonts or the 3812/3816 Compatibility Font Set. Font selection using printer resident PCL fonts The printer defaults to GFID 0011 unless otherwise defined.
FONT SUPPORT AND SELECTION set to match pitch, if spacing is set to fixed, and font selection occurs. • The predefined table (refer to the “PCL font and IBM GFID” appendix) is examined and a selection occurs when a match is made. Horizontal Motion Index (HMI) is set to match pitch, if spacing is set to fixed, and font selection occurs.

D. Coax communications buffer This appendix describes a memory area known as the communications buffer that is used by all coax emulations. Communications buffer The communications buffer (figure D-1) contains a character buffer and an extended attribute buffer.
COAX COMMUNICATIONS BUFFER Printer Output Area The Printer Output Area (POA) that occupies locations X'0000' to X'000F' of the Printer Communications Interface Area (PCIA) contains information regarding printer status and configuration.

COAX COMMUNICATIONS BUFFER Orders Orders accepted by the Xerox MRP Family coax printers are operations that control printing and mode changing. The PCIA bytes X'0016'—X'0017' specify the type of order the printer is required to perform.
COAX COMMUNICATIONS BUFFER In the SCS mode, if ML defines a position beyond the end of the buffer, data wraps from the end of the buffer back to address (X'0050') which is the beginning of the data area. In the DSC mode, if ML extends beyond the end of the buffer, printing stops at the end of the buffer.

F. Helpful hints Setting Function Selection via Line (FSL) to match emulated IBM printers Some of the IBM printers the coax interface is emulating are subsets of other IBM printers. It is recommended, therefore, to set the Function Selection via line (FSL) functions to restrict the support on the interface to match the emulated IBM printers.
HELPFUL HINTS These PCL fonts can be downloaded to the printer by the Configuration and Resource Utility. Additional notes There is no equivalent of the XES <ESC>+1fontname<CR><LF> functionality when printing IBM data streams. Access to fonts must be made by mapping IBM font calls to the new PCL fonts.
HELPFUL HINTS To resolve the problem, set the Communications Priority Scheme for the twinax/coax interface on the printer to anything other than Sequential (which is the default).
.
G. Query replies The tables in this appendix describe the query replies available on the interface. These replies are the same for all printer emulations. Differences are restricted only in the support of the Printer Communication Interface Area (PCIA).

FORMS UTILITY FOR THE COAX ENVIRONMENT 2. Send the file containing the FSL commands by using a JCL file. For example: //JK12345 JOB (XXXX),'FSLY37',MSGLEVEL = (1,1),CLASS = A, // MSGLASS = X.
FORMS UTILITY FOR THE COAX ENVIRONMENT There are PCL commands that cause a conditional page eject. That is, a page is ejected if there is any printable data in the print buffer.
FORMS UTILITY FOR THE COAX ENVIRONMENT Implementing FormFixC Entering FormFixC Screen From the FormFixC directory, type: C:FORMFIXC>formfixc The FormFixC Utility Menu will appear with these two items: 1) Run FormFixC Utility 2) Change FormFixC Defaults Before running the utility, you need to first change the defaults.
FORMS UTILITY FOR THE COAX ENVIRONMENT 3. Press Enter to run the utility on the form listed on the screen. The original file will remain; it will not be deleted. This message will appear on the bottom of the screen: Conversion Complete; Form Name is <form_name>.
FORMS UTILITY FOR THE COAX ENVIRONMENT Merging variable data with a single form (macro) Before instructing the printer to start merging variable data with a macro that is already residing in the printer's memory, some setup commands must be sent.
FORMS UTILITY FOR THE COAX ENVIRONMENT Once this job is submitted using a JCL, it will merge this variable data with the macro ID #1 that is already residing on the printer. Here is an example of a JCL used to submit the job (VARDATA2) to VPS Remote 156.
FORMS UTILITY FOR THE COAX ENVIRONMENT //SYSPRINT DD SYSOUT = X //SYSIN DD DUMMY //SYSUT2 DD SYSOUT = J //SYSUT1 DD DSN = JK12345.EBCDIC.VARDATA2,DISP = SHR Note: SYSOUT=J is used. Merging variable data with different forms (macros) To invoke different forms, the macro call command must be used.
FORMS UTILITY FOR THE COAX ENVIRONMENT • LINE 130. Switching form orientation As previously mentioned, there are setup commands that must be sent before instructing the printer to start merging variable data with a macro.
