Specifying input parameters • If the host application program uses ANSI carriage control commands, the host operating system converts each command to a valid 3211 or 4245 channel command before sending it to the printer for online printing. The printing system online interface (as well as the 3211 and 4245) rejects any commands other than those processed. Therefore, the only appropriate PCCTYPE for an online JSL file is IBM3211, which is the online default. • Because the carriage control command is sent before the data record (rather than as part of it), offsets to fields (such as DJDE prefix and font index) are typically one byte less for online than offline mode, since the offline carriage control byte is part of the data record. For the same reason, the online LINE DATA parameter typically has a default offset of 0, rather than 1. VOLUME KANJI Specifies the double-byte character printing mode. Allows printing of data streams of intermixed single-byte and doublebyte characters. Syntax VOLUME KANJI = {YES | NO} Options Table 2-65. VOLUME KANJI parameter options and definitions Option Definition YES NO Allows printing of a data stream of intermixed single-byte and double-byte characters. Allows printing of only single-byte characters. Default NO VOLUME KANJI parameter: point to note This parameter functions the same as the VOLUME DBCS parameter, which is the preferred method of specifying doublebyte character printing mode. The VOLUME KANJI parameter is supported only for compatibility purposes. 2-62 Using LCDS Print Description Language
