DSC AND SCS DATA STREAM COMMANDS

Set Horizontal Format (SHF)

2-14
2BC1nnhhlmrmht...tn
Defines the maximum number of characters per line, left margin,
right margin, and horizontal tabs. It activates the auto new line
function.
2B Control sequence prefix of a Set Horizontal
Format command
C1 Command class for a Set Horizontal Format
command
nn Number of bytes in a command including nn.
Valid values are 01 to FF.
If nn equals 01, the maximum print position
defaults to the user selected value, the left
margin defaults to column 1, the right margin
defaults to MPP, and the tab values are cleared.
These settings represent the printer default state.
A value of X'00' causes a SCS parameter check
and default values to be installed.
hh A one-byte number specifying the maximum
horizontal print position in characters per line.
Valid values for hh are printer dependent.
The 3812 emulation accepts a maximum value of:
X'8C' (140 decimal) - when the CPI is 10
X'A8' (168 decimal) - when the CPI is 12
X'D2' (210 decimal) - when the CPI is 15
X'DF' (223 decimal) - when the CPI is 17
The 3268 emulation accepts maximum values of
X'84' (132) when 10 character per inch (CPI) is
selected and X'DC' (220) when 16 CPI is
selected.
For all other emulations, the maximum value of
hh is X'84' (132) as these emulations support
only 10 cpi.
A value of X'00' causes the default value to be
used.
If the hh value is not valid, defaults for this and
all other parameters are selected and a SCS
parameter check occurs.
The default value for MPP (hh) is set at the
printer.
