Section 4 Advanced Functions
The AX-7 Cobra+ supports a number of functions beyond standard
IBM printer operation.
During normal mode of operation, AX-7 Cobra+, together with your
printer, emulates the IBM coax printer selected in your configuration.
In addition, the Extended Emulation Mode gives you access to
functions not available in standard IBM printers.
The examples in this section are intended to give you an overview of
how to use the advanced functions in the Extended Emulation Mode
and the PC-Host Sharing function.
Extended Emulation Mode
The advanced functions that you can access in the Extended
Emulation Mode are:
• Transparency
• Configuration from the System
• Character Translation
• User Definable Strings
• String Substitutions
•Bar Code Printing
The functions are programmed, and called, by text sequences inserted
into your documents. The sequences are inserted between enter and
exit commands that control the Extended Emulation Mode, see page
