CHAPTER 4 — PROGRAMMABLE FUNCTION STRINGS

1D — L 15CPI

Print 15 characters per inch in landscape orientation. This PFS is sent to

the printer when the 5250 ALLY’s page orientation algorithm has selected

a landscape orientation, and when the System has requested a font with a

pitch of greater than 12 but less than or equal to 15 CPI (using either an

SCS Set Character Density command or an SCS Set FID through GFID

command).
If the printer is capable of printing any font at any pitch (CPI), then this

PFS should set the pitch for the current font. If a specific font is needed to

achieve 15 CPI, then this PFS should be defined to select that font.
If Option 4F — CPI/Font Order is set to 00 (!AGILE!4F=00;), then this

PFS will be sent before the GFID for the font is sent. If Option 4F — CPI/

Font Order is set to 01 (!AGILE!4F=01;), then this PFS will be sent after

the GFID for the font is sent.

1E — L 16CPI

Print 16 characters per inch in landscape orientation. This PFS is sent to

the printer when the 5250 ALLY’s page orientation algorithm has selected

a landscape orientation, and when the System has requested a font with a

pitch of greater than 15 but less than or equal to 16 CPI (using either an

SCS Set Character Density command or an SCS Set FID through GFID

command).
If the printer is capable of printing any font at any pitch (CPI), then this

PFS should set the pitch for the current font. If a specific font is needed to

achieve 16 CPI, then this PFS should be defined to select that font.
If Option 4F — CPI/Font Order is set to 00 (!AGILE!4F=00;), then this

PFS will be sent before the GFID for the font is sent. If Option 4F — CPI/

Font Order is set to 01 (!AGILE!4F=01;), then this PFS will be sent after

the GFID for the font is sent.

1F — L 17CPI

Print 17 characters per inch in landscape orientation. This PFS is sent to

the printer when the 5250 ALLY’s page orientation algorithm has selected

a landscape orientation, and when the System has requested a font with a

pitch of greater than 16 CPI (using either an SCS Set Character Density

command or an SCS Set FID through GFID command).
