LASER CARDS FOR HP 4000 TWINAX AND COAX PRINTERS
VALUE DESCRIPTION
*0 Obey all IBM control codes (Supp None)
1 Suppress all IBM control codes (Supp All)
2 Suppress LPI, CPI, MPP and MPL control codes (Supp CPI/LPI)
3 Suppress CPI and MPP control codes (Supp CPI)
4 Suppress LPI and MPL control codes (Supp LPI)
5 Suppress print quality specified in the PPM command (Supp Quality)
If this command is set to 1, documents need to be formatted by sending
transparent control codes to the printer using Command Pass-Thru or
SCS mode transparent data.
If value 2 is selected, the SCS pitch (CPI), line density (LPI), SHF (MPP),
and SVF (MPL) commands will be suppressed (not sent to the printer).
Example: &%Z36,2: No LPI, CPI, MPP or MPL commands are sent to the printer.
The document prints using the printer's defaults.
COMMAND 37: VERTICAL CHANNEL SELECT (VCS)
Specifies vertical channel select (VCS) emulation. Functions similarly to a vertical
tab, except the 3287 does LF only.
VALUE
0
*1
Example: &%Z37,0 selects 3287 VCS emulation
COMMAND 38: TRUE LPI SPACING
Because laser printers have a non-printable border around the edge of single-sheet
pages, 6 LPI and 8 LPI spacing is compressed slightly to enable 66 lines and 88
lines to be printed on 11-inch-long paper. This can occasionally cause a problem,
especially when using preprinted forms that must align precisely. Command 38
enables a user to override the laser printer LPI compression.
