Select Sfcc (P-Series); Select So Char - Printronix T5000 User Manual

Chapter 3
Emulation Submenus
The options are 6.0, 8.0, and 10.3 LPI.
The factory default is 6.0 LPI.
Select SFCC (PGL)
(From page 140.) You can specify which decimal code (1-255) will be used as
the Special Function Control Code (SFCC). The SFCC denotes that the
following data is a PGL command.
The range is 1-255, and the factory default is 126.

Select SFCC (P-Series)

(From page 146.) This P-Series feature allows you to select an ASCII code
which defines the Special Function Control Code (SFCC) command code
value. The factory default value is hex 01, but the P-Series options allow
selection of any value ranging from hex 00 through hex 7F. This powerful
feature permits the SFCC code to be assigned a value compatible with the
application environment where the P-Series jobs originate. The most
commonly used values include the following:
•
SOH (01 hex)
•
ESC (1B hex)
•
ETX (03 hex)
•
Circumflex (5e hex) - also called caret (^)
•
Tilde (7F hex) - (~)
NOTE: Non-Printable ASCII code values range from hex 00 through hex 1F
The range is 0-7F, and the factory default is 1.

Select SO Char

(From page 141, page 143.) Allows you to specify a decimal code from 0
through 255 to be used in place of SO (Shift Out) as the control code which
allows access for the alternate set of control function characters. See the
description of the Code 128 barcodes in the PGL Programmer's Reference
Manual for details.
The range is 0-255, and the factory default is 14.
190
and also include hex 7F. Printable ASCII code values range from hex
20 through hex 7E. If a printable code value is chosen to define the
SFCC code value, you must ensure that the printer data stream will
not contain the same code value in printable text. Otherwise text
containing the character for the SFCC control code value may be
incorrectly processed as an SFCC command causing print errors.
