Emulation
• Enable Host Buffer Print – Enabling this checkbox will output a formatted
printout with hex codes on the left column and the translated characters on the
right column.
• ASCII Pass Thru – This feature will enable the AS/400 application to activate
specific printer functions. During normal print mode, the iCON converts the
SCS data stream from the AS/400 into ASCII printer control codes and printable
characters. When the iCON detects the Pass Thru delimiter characters, it stops
converting the SCS data stream and starts “passing thru” the embedded printer
control codes to the printer. This continues until the Pass Thru delimiter characters
are detected.
Note: This feature will only be enabled if the Host Transform entry is set to
*NO in the iCON Environment setup screen.
– Off – Turn off ASCII Pass Thru. Do not check data stream for delimiters.
– On – Turn on ASCII Pass Thru (APT). Check data stream for delimiters and
discard them, interpret APT characters and pass them to the printer.
– Discard – Check data stream for delimiters and discard them, interpret APT
characters and discard them. Used for troubleshooting.
– Delimiter – Enter two EBCDIC characters that will be used to Start/Stop ASCII
Pass Thru.
