Translate Table
This parameter defines which translate table to use for printing. The following
options are available:
Default (the default). Translates data by using the default table of the
current character set.
Downloaded. Translates data from EBCDIC to internal code by using the
downloaded translate table.
Override Host
OVERRIDE HOST determines whether the printer executes certain
commands sent by the host, or continues to use the current settings. The
following host commands are ignored when OVERRIDE HOST is enabled:
line length, forms length, lines per inch (LPI), characters per inch (CPI), print
quality, and text orientation (i.e. left to right). When OVERRIDE HOST is
enabled, these settings retain their operator panel settings.
Disable (the default). Allows certain host commands (line length, forms
length, LPI, CPI, print quality, and text orientation) to override operator
panel settings. Note that the information appearing on the message
display may not match the data stream setting. No values will change
upon initial selection of the disable option.
Enable. Permits operator panel settings to override host data stream
commands.
