Termination
Restores the printer to its original state after plotting. Specify a termination
ASCII text string that is sent to the plotter after plotting is complete.
Use a back slash followed by a three-digit number (taken from the ASCII table),
for example, \027, to specify binary (unprintable) characters such as the escape
character.
User-Defined Paper Sizes & Calibration Node
Attaches a PMP file to the PC3 file, calibrates the plotter, and adds, deletes,
revises, or filters custom paper sizes. You can also modify standard paper sizes.
This node accesses the Plotter Calibration and Custom Paper Size wizards. If
the plotter you are using has been calibrated, a Plotter Model Parameter (PMP)
file contains that calibration information. If the PMP file is not already attached
to the PC3 file you are editing, you must create that association so you can
use the PMP file. If the plotter was calibrated from within the Add-a-Plotter
wizard while creating the current PC3 file, the PMP file is already attached.
Use the PMP File Name option under User-defined Paper Sizes & Calibration
to attach a PMP file to, or detach the PMP file from, the PC3 file you are
editing.
Custom Paper Sizes (Nonsystem Printers Only)
Creates a customized paper size or changes the printable area of a standard or
nonstandard paper size.
With the Custom Paper Size wizard you can create a new paper size, or select
from a list of available paper sizes (from a PMP file) if the plotter is not a
Windows system printer. If the plotter is a Windows system printer, use
Custom Properties.
Each plotter has a maximum printable area determined by where it grips the
paper and how far the pen shuttle can reach. If you are creating a paper size
that is larger than the paper sizes offered in the Plotter Configuration Editor,
verify that the plotter is capable of plotting the new dimensions.
■ Add: Starts the Custom Paper Size wizard. When you add a paper size, you
can either create a new paper size from scratch or create a new one based
on the listing of available paper sizes for the selected configured plotter.
The new paper size is a user-defined size, not a standard size.
■ Delete: Deletes the selected custom paper size from the list.
■ Edit: Starts the Custom Paper Size wizard, where you can modify the selected
paper size. You can change any of the custom paper size settings.
