Other port configuration parameters that affect the printer's operation in this mode
are:
• LV device number (The third one on the configuration screen is used)
• Receive XONjXOFF (If the printer in use sends XONjXOFF to pace the data
from the 3708, this option must be set to 1; otherwise data may be lost.)
• Operating Mode (parameter should be set to 1, protocol conversion.)
• Delay after Form Feed
• Delay after Carriage Return
• Maximum Platen Length
• Default Page Length (parameter should be set to the length of page that should
be used for LV type 1 data. If the LV type 1 data stream does not use the Set
Vertical Format command to initialize the page length parameter (MPL), this
configuration value must be set to the desired page length.
• Printer Authorization Matrix (print mode, print classes, and source device list
must be set up correctly to enable local copy and host printouts to occur as
required.)
• Printer Form Feed Options.
In addition to the configuration of the port to which the printer is attached, the
Host Printer Source Field of the host definition must indicate that a printer exists
for the host. A printer can belong to only one host.
