A number of VALUE settings is summarized in a "Macro". It is possible to have
a total of four macros, each with a different summary of VALUE settings. The
standard macros have the following emulations defined:
Macro Emulation
1 Philips GP
2 IBM Proprinter XL 24
3 IBM Proprinter XL 24 AGM
4 EPSON LQ 1060, LQ 2550
Macro parameters can be tailored to specific application requirements. This
feature is highly beneficial in case of frequent changes between applications in
multi-user environment. Instead of having to adjust the menu settings each time
before a particular application is starting, the user simply selects the macro
containing the pre-defined set-up configurations.
