Additional Product Information


Forms mounting is supported. Reports will not print unless the FORM of the report matches the current printer’s FORM.
Commands are available to display the status of reports currently printing or waiting to be printed. Commands are also available to manipulate both printers and reports.
Security is provided to prevent users from accessing reports and printers.
When multiple reports are to be printed on the same printer, the report’s priority determines which report will be printed first. This allows for "HOT" reports to be printed first. Each printer defined has a specified maximum number of lines allowed to prevent reports which exceed this number from printing on the printer.
Printer translation tables are available to convert certain hexadecimal characters in the report to prevent hardware errors.
Reports are directed to a destination name (which may or may not have the same name as the printer). This allows the physical printer to have different options (separator pages, page eject options, line width, maximum number of lines, and translate table) based on the destination name.
