Note: If the user intends to download PFS definitions within the data
streams of print jobs, Option #1 Column Width should be set to 0
(infinite line length), Option #2 Lines Per Page should be set to 0
(infinite page length), and Option #15 Bold Print Emulation should be
set to C (none). Otherwise, unpredictable formatting errors could occur.
Refer to Section 12 DisplayWrite 370 Support for more information.
Multiple Function Strings
Programmable Function Strings may be set up so they will automatically
execute additional PFSs. By including a plus sign (+) as the last character in
a PFS, the ULTRA will send that PFS plus the following PFS to the printer.
For example, if PFS 3 is defined as:
[xx][xx][xx]+ (where [xx] represents a hexadecimal pair)
whenever PFS 3 is executed, the contents of both PFS 3 and PFS 4 will be
sent to the printer.
By including a plus sign (+) and a PFS number as the last two characters in
a PFS, the ULTRA will send that PFS plus PFS n to the printer. For
example, if PFS 2 is defined as:
[xx][xx][xx]+7 (where [xx] represents a hexadecimal pair)
whenever PFS 2 is executed, the contents of both PFS 2 and PFS 7 will be
sent to the printer.
Downloading Translate Tables
All spaces, nulls and carriage control characters (CR, NL, LF, FF) will be
ignored during translate table downloading. This allows the user to separate
entries for easier reading, and it prevents the data from becoming corrupted
by host forms control.
Note: If the user intends to download translate tables within the data
streams of print jobs, Option #1 Column Width should be set to 0
(infinite line length), Option #2 Lines Per Page should be set to 0
(infinite page length), and Option #15 Bold Print Emulation should be
set to C (none). Otherwise, unpredictable formatting errors could occur.
Refer to Section 12 DisplayWrite 370 Support for more information.
