World Trade

The 5225 emulation has a multinational character set that serves as a base for 14
world trade character set assortments. They are shown in the 6500 Coax/Twinax
Programmer's Reference Manual.
You can configure the printer to use the Standard Character Set so the printer
contains the IBM World Trade character set, such as the Austria/Germany
character set. Or, you can select Extended Character Set and use the multinational
character set as a base with the selected world trade character set overlaid.
v Standard Character Set (the default)
v Extended Character Set

Cancel Buffers

CANCEL BUFFERS has the following options:
v Enable (the default). Cancels all buffers when a job is put on hold from the host
or the Cancel key is pressed.
v Disable. Clears the twinax internal buffer, not the print engine buffers, when a
job is put on hold from the host or the Cancel key is pressed.

Early Print Complete

Early Print Complete allows the printer to send Print Complete status to the host
before the printer is actually done printing all data. Early Print Complete is only
available if the IPDS feature is installed.
v Disable (the default). Means the printer will suppress the Early Print Complete
response until all printing is complete.
v Enable. Means the printer will send an acknowledgement to the host when it is
able to accept more data.
Note: When an Early Print Complete is enabled and an error occurs, the data in
the printer will remain in the buffer (regardless of the setting of the Cancel
Buffer option). It is recommended that local procedures be followed to
recover from the error.
Do not select Early Print Complete while a print job is in progress. If this is
done you will need to restart the printer.
