Printer Emulations

Each emulation provides a different set of configuration menus, control codes,
and character sets. The following printer emulations (or protocols) are
standard, and selectable at the operator panel:
•
Proprinter III XL Emulation
•
Epson FX Emulation
•
P-Series Printer Emulation
•
P-Series XQ Variant Printer Emulation
•
Serial Matrix Printer Emulation
Proprinter III XL and Epson FX Emulations
The Proprinter III XL and Epson FX emulations are industry standard printer
emulations.
P-Series Printer Emulation
This code system was developed especially for line matrix printers. As line
matrix printers became more sophisticated, this code system kept pace by
adding codes that fully utilized line matrix printer capabilities.
This emulation appears as "P-Series" on the operator panel.
P-Series XQ Variant Printer Emulation
This code system was devised for a series of printers manufactured between
1974 and 1991, that are no longer available.
This emulation appears as "P-Series XQ" on the operator panel.
Serial Matrix Printer Emulation
This printer emulation is very similar to the code systems used by an InfoPrint
Graphics Printer, but incorporates several systems into one emulation. This
emulation enables a line matrix printer to print files coded for a serial matrix
printer, and is sometimes referred to as the Serial Matrix collection.
