3.3.13 Exception Control

It is often practical to suppress exception reporting on undefined characters and on position errors

(printing outside the valid printable area, VPA). This option overrides the

Exception Handling Control

in the IPDS data stream.

Report All*

No suppression of exceptions. Exception reporting is controlled by the IPDS data

stream.

Sup Beyond VPA

Exception reporting on position errors (outside VPA) is suppressed. The printer

IPDS emulation will print the IPDS job but not report "08C1" printable area

exceptions or "0411" bar code exceptions to the host.

Sup Undef Char

If an undefined character is found, exception reporting is suppressed. The printer

IPDS emulation will print the IPDS job but not report "0821" undefined character

exceptions to the host.

Suppress Both

Both position errors and undefined character exceptions are suppressed.

3.3.14 Font Control

This option defines how strict the reporting will be if a selected font does not correspond to a valid

combination of code page and character set.

Relaxed*

The printer makes an intelligent decision concerning whether the selected combination of

code page and character set is adequately supported. A “Relaxed” setting will report very

few exceptions. If the selected font is not found, the printer will substitute with the

closest matching font. If a font/code page combination is selected, which is not fully

supported, characters may be missing.

Strict

A “Strict” setting reports exceptions when a requested font/code page or substituted

font/code page combination is not valid. The “Strict” setting prints all characters.

3.3.15 Font Type

This option selects the type of fonts used by the printer when a standard resident fixed pitch Courier,

Prestige, or Letter Gothic Font is requested by the host.

Use Scalable*

Use printer resident scalable fonts for Courier, Prestige, and Letter Gothic fonts when

bitmap font IDs are received from the host.

Use Bitmap

Use printer resident bitmap fonts for Courier, Prestige, and Letter Gothic fonts when

bitmap font IDs are received from the host.
