PI Control
Printer PI
Disable indicates that the ASCII emulation is configured with the PI line disabled.
Setting this option to Enable informs the VGL that the ASCII emulation is
configured with the PI line enabled.
Host PI
Disable indicates the host does not send PI signals. Setting this option to Enable
informs the VGL that the host sends PI signals. The Data Bit 8 configuration
option must be disabled to transmit the PI line to the printer.
Max PI 16
This parameter determines if the range for a paper slew is from 1 to 15 lines or 1
to 16 lines. If this option is set to enable, a paper slew of 0–15 will move 1–16
lines. If this option is set to disable, A paper slew of 1–15 will move 1–15 lines. A
paper slew of 0 will always move 1 line.
Prt to Emulate
This option allows you to select an earlier model printer/IGP board combination to
emulate. When a printer emulation is selected, the scaling command causes the
printer to generate a graphic image in the same density as the printer emulation
chosen. Five types of printers can be emulated: MVP or MVP 150B, L150,
P3040, P6000, and P9000. Once a particular printer emulation is selected, it
remains active until the printer is turned off or another printer emulation is
selected. All new users with new applications should select the "Disable" option.
Selecting this mode insures the printer will behave as described in this manual.
The other compatibility modes are required to emulate the behaviors of older
printers that may be inconsistent with the documented VGL functionality. Proper
use of this feature requires the printer to be equipped with high resolution
hammer bank tips (12 mil).
