Printer Address

PRINTER ADDRESS allows you to set the device address from 0 through 6.
The host directs data and commands on the twinax line to a specific device
based on its unique device address.
After the address has been changed, a POR status is sent to the host.

World Trade (5225 Only)

The 5225 emulation has a multinational character set that serves as a base for
14 world trade character set assortments. They are shown in the
6400 Coax/Twinax Programmer's Reference Manual.
You can configure the printer to use the STANDARD CHARACTER SET so
the printer contains the IBM World Trade character set, such as the
Austria/Germany character set. Or, you can select EXTENDED
CHARACTER SET and use the multinational character set as a base with the
selected world trade character set overlaid. Ensure that you select
ALTERNATE PRINT LANGUAGE.

Cancel Buffers

CANCEL BUFFERS has the following options:
ENABLE (the default) cancels all buffers when a job is put on hold from
the host or the Cancel key is pressed.
DISABLE clears the twinax internal buffer, not the print engine buffers,
when a job is put on hold from the host or the Cancel key is pressed.

Early Print Complete

Early Print Complete allows the printer to send Print Complete status to the
host before the printer is actually done printing all data. Early Print Complete
is only available if the IPDS feature is installed.
DISABLE (the default) means the printer will suppress the Early Print
Complete response until all printing is complete.
