<h4 id="rzaluhptwhyuse">Host print transform advantages</h4>
|
||
|
|
<p>The host print transform allows the SCS-to-ASCII or AFP-to-ASCII data stream
|
||
|
|
conversion to take place on the iSeries server instead of on an emulator. Having
|
||
|
|
the conversion take place on the iSeries server provides these advantages: </p>
|
||
|
|
<ul>
|
||
|
|
<li>Consistent output for most ASCII printers
|
||
|
|
<p>The host print transform
|
||
|
|
is capable of supporting many different types of ASCII data streams. For example,
|
||
|
|
the Hewlett-Packard printer control language (PCL), the IBM® personal printer
|
||
|
|
data stream (PPDS), and the Epson FX and LQ data streams.</p>
|
||
|
|
<p>Having the
|
||
|
|
conversion done on the iSeries server ensures that the resultant ASCII data stream
|
||
|
|
provides the same printed output regardless of the emulator that the printer
|
||
|
|
is physically attached to.</p></li>
|
||
|
|
<li>3812 SCS Printer Emulation
|
||
|
|
<p>The host print transform is based on the
|
||
|
|
3812 SCS printer emulation of the iSeries Access for Windows workstation function. Using the host
|
||
|
|
print transform, all of the ASCII printers that are connected to an iSeries server
|
||
|
|
can perform a 3812 SCS level of function. </p>

|

<div class="notetitle" id="wq117">Note:</div>
|
||
|
|
<div class="notebody">You cannot perform
|
||
|
|
functions that your printer does not support. For example, you cannot print
|
||
|
|
in 180-degree orientation when your printer only supports 0-
|
||
|
|
and 90-degree orientations.</div></li>
|
||
|
|
<li>Support for many different ASCII printers
|
||
|
|
<p>Without host print transform,
|
||
|
|
each emulator supports a limited number of ASCII printers. With the host print
|
||
|
|
transform, most IBM printers and a large number of other printers are supported.</p></li>
|
||
|
|
<li>Customized printer support
|
||
|
|
<p>Workstation customizing objects that come
|
||
|
|
with the host print transform can be updated by the user to change or add
|
||
|
|
characteristics to a particular printer. Also, if the host print transform
|
||
|
|
does not have a workstation customizing object for a printer you want to use,
|
||
|
|
you can create your own.</p></li>
|
||
|
|
<li>Support for the Image Object Content Architecture (IOCA) imbedded in an
|
||
|
|
SCS data stream.
|
||
|
|
<p>Image output can be printed on PCL printers (Hewlet-Packard
|
||
|
|
LaserJet) or PPDS laser printers (IBM 4019 or 4029).</p>
|
||
|
|
<p>This support allows
|
||
|
|
you to print incoming faxes from Facsimile Support for iSeries to PCL and
|
||
|
|
PPDS laser printers. This support is available to all emulators discussed
|
||
|
|
under host print transform.</p>
|
||
|
|
<p>Incoming faxes saved in a folder as RFT:DCA
|
||
|
|
can be printed by using the Print Document (PRTDOC) command. You can also
|
||
|
|
use the Print Fax (PRTFAX) command to direct the incoming faxes directly to
|
||
|
|
an ASCII print device configured to use the host print transform. Host print
|
||
|
|
transform has also been enhanced to do image resolution scaling which allows
|
||
|
|
faxes to be printed in normal size. See <a href="../books/c4106551.pdf" target="_blank">Facsimile Support for OS/400® User's Guide</a>
|
||
|
|
<img src="wbpdf.gif" alt="Link to PDF" />for more information.</p></li>
|
||
|
|
<li>Support for conversion of double-byte SCS or AFP™ data stream into ASCII data stream</li></ul>
|
||
|
|
<p>For the AFP-to-ASCII data stream conversion, there are additional advantages,
|
||
|
|
such as support for AFP font, text, image, and bar code commands.</p>
