Section 13: Using Logical Printers AXIS 5470e User’s Manual

174

Example: Assume that you want to replace the UNIX New Line (hex 0A) with an

ASCII NewLine (hex

0D 0A), and the printer command

(hex

1B 47 31) with

Y (hex 1B 59) for logical printer PR2.

Follow the instructions below to substitute command strings:

1. Click admin and the Logical Printer Settings button.

2. Select the PR2 tab.

3. Enter the string 01 0A 02 0D 0A 03 1B 47 31 02 1B 59 in the

String Substitutions text field.

4. Click OK.

Note:

Character Set

Conversion

A common problem in a multiple host environment is that different

hosts use different ASCII character sets. As a result of this, language

specific characters (such as å ü ô ñ) are sometimes printed

incorrectly.

The AXIS 5470e solution to this problem is to assign a character set

conversion filter to a logical printer, and then link that logical printer

to the host causing the problem.

Hex code Explanation

01 length of the UNIX New Line command

0A the UNIX New Line command

02 length of the ASCII New Line command

0D 0A the ASCII New Line command

03 length of the replaced printer command

1B 47 31 the replaced printer command

02 length of the new printer command

1B 59 the new printer command

Extensive use of string substitutions will decrease the throughput rate of the

AXIS 5470e.
