The AXIS 5550 solution to this problem is to assign a character set
conversion filter to a logical printer, and then link that logical printer to
the host causing the problem.
You select your desired conversion filter by setting the Character Set
Conversion (PRx_CSET.) parameter. The output from the conversion filter
is always IBM PC Set 2 (Code Page 437), and this is the character set the
printer must be set up for.
Your network contains a host using the character set ISO 8859-2 and a host using the
character set DEC.
In order to direct print jobs to the printer connected to the AXIS 5550,
you should assign the host to a separate logical printer, and install a
character set conversion filter.
Follow the instructions below to change the conversion filter:
1. From the print server's internal Web page, select Admin | Logical
Printers.
2. Select the PR1 tab.
3. Set the parameter Physical Port to USB1.
4. Set the parameter Character Set Conversion to ISO>IBM.
5. Click the OK button.
6. Select the PR2 tab.
7. Set the parameter Physical Port to USB1.
8. Set the parameter Character Set Conversion to DEC>IBM.
9. Click the OK button.
The ISO 8859-2 printer data that is sent to logical printer PR1 converts to
IBM PC Set 2 and is printed on USB1. Similarly, the DEC printer data that
is sent to logical printer PR2 converts to IBM PC Set 2 and is printed on
USB1.
These string functions provide a way to send printer control commands
before and after each print job. They may be specified individually for
each logical printer.
All strings are entered as hexadecimal byte values.
