<h4 id="rzaluxqwp4019parms">QWP4019 parameter names and functions</h4>
<p>The following list contains the QWP4019 parameter names and explains the
function provided when they are called. </p>
<dl>
<dt class="bold">Parameter</dt>
<dd class="bold">Function provided</dd>
<dt class="bold">*ON</dt>
<dd>This parameter sets a flag in the printer device description that:
<ul>
<li>Indicates to i5/OS that the 4019 fonts are to be used instead of the 5219
or 3812 fonts. See <a href="rzalufntsub.htm#rzalufntsub">Printer font support</a> to view the font mapping and
substitution for the 4019 printer.</li>
<li>Enables manual paper feed selection if the value in the form feed (FORMFEED)
parameter is *CUT.</li>
<li>Prevents the value of *COR in the page rotation (PAGRTT) parameter from
being sent to a 3477 InfoWindow&reg; display that has an attached printer
configured as a 5219. This is important because the 3477 does not support
computer output reduction (COR). Without this flag, the PAGRTT(*COR) value
in the printer file cannot be used for these printers.</li></ul>
</dd>
<dt class="bold">*OFF</dt>
<dd>This parameter sets the *ON flag off. Also, if the *SIC or *COR flags
were set on, using the *OFF parameter sets them off.
</dd>
<dt class="bold">*CHECK</dt>
<dd>This parameter asks how the printer appears to the iSeries server (as a
3812, 4019, or 5219).
<p>If the value 4019 is returned, it indicates that
the QWP4019 program has been called with the *ON parameter.</p>
</dd>
<dt class="bold">*CNT</dt>
<dd>This parameter sets a flag in the printer device description that tells
the iSeries server that the printer has a continuous form feed device. The flag
is used by the system to determine whether forms alignment is possible for
printers that are configured as a 3812 printer. The 3812 printer does not
support continuous forms.
<p>This flag can only be set for printers that are
configured as a 3812 printer.</p>
</dd>
<dt class="bold">*CNTOFF</dt>
<dd>This parameter sets the *CNT flag off.
</dd>
<dt class="bold">*IMP</dt>
<dd>This parameter sets a flag in the printer device description that allows
a print quality selection other than draft when:
<ul>
<li>The value in the page rotation (PAGRTT) parameter of the printer file
is *AUTO.</li>
<li>The printer is attached to an emulator (for example, a 3477 InfoWindow display)
that supports page rotation.</li></ul>
<p>For automatic page rotation to be done by an actual 3812 SCS printer,
the print quality control sent to the printer must specify draft quality.
Therefore, without the *IMP flag on, the iSeries server sends controls to the
printer for draft selection. Because the 3812 SCS printer supports only one
level of print quality, printed output is not affected by print quality selection.</p>
<p>With the *IMP flag set on, the iSeries server sends the value in the print
quality (PRTQLTY) parameter of the printer file directly to the emulator.
This is done instead of changing the print quality to draft when the value
of the page rotation (PAGRTT) parameter is *AUTO.</p>
</dd>
<dt class="bold">*IMPOFF</dt>
<dd>This parameter sets the *IMP flag off.
</dd>
<dt class="bold">*SIC</dt>
<dd>This parameter sets a flag in the printer device description that sends
an ASCII Set Initial Conditions command to the printer. This command turns
off the font intervention messages for a 4019 or 4029 printer.
<p>The 4019
or 4029 printer must be attached to a 3477 InfoWindow display and be configured as a
5219 printer.</p>
<p>The *ON flag must be set in the 4019 or 4029 device description. </p>
<a name="wq473"></a>
<div class="notetitle" id="wq473">Note:</div>
<div class="notebody">Do not attempt to turn this flag on for any device other than a
4019 or 4029 attached to a 3477 InfoWindow display.</div>
</dd>
<dt class="bold">*SICOFF</dt>
<dd>This parameter sets the *SIC flag off.
</dd>
<dt class="bold">*COR</dt>
<dd>This parameter sets a flag in the printer device description that enables
computer output reduction (value of *COR in the page rotation (PAGRTT) parameter
of the printer file.)
<p>*COR is only needed if the *ON flag is set.</p>
<p>The printers must be attached to a 348x InfoWindow, configured as a 5219, and have
the *ON flag set in the printer device description.</p>
<p>To the iSeries server,
printers configured as 5219 appear the same whether they are attached to a
3477 or to a 348x InfoWindow display.</p>
<p>The *ON flag prevents computer
output reduction from being done on printers attached to the 348x or 3477.
This is because the 3477 does not support computer output reduction. Therefore,
if the *ON flag is set, the *COR flag must be set on to enable computer output
reduction for printers configured as 5219 and attached to a 348x InfoWindow display.</p>
</dd>
<dt class="bold">*COROFF</dt>
<dd>This parameter sets the *COR flag off.
</dd>
<dt class="bold">*RST</dt>
<dd>This parameter sets a flag in the printer device description that causes
the writer to reset the printer at the beginning of each spooled file. In
most environments, this might cause a noticeable decrease in performance because
of the SNA overhead involved in doing the reset. This flag can be set for
any SCS printer.
</dd>
<dt class="bold">*RSTOFF</dt>
<dd>This parameter sets the *RST flag off.
</dd>
<dt class="bold">*ON5256</dt>
<dd>This parameter causes the operating system to configure the printer
as a 5256 printer.
</dd>
<dt class="bold">*ON5262</dt>
<dd>This parameter causes the operating system to configure the printer
as a 5262 printer.
</dd>
<dt class="bold">*OFF52</dt>
<dd>This parameter turns off the *ON5256 and *ON5262 flags in the device
description.
</dd>
<dt class="bold">*ON4214</dt>
<dd>This parameter causes the operating system to configure the printer
as a 4214 printer.
</dd>
<dt class="bold">*OF4214</dt>
<dd>This parameter turns off the *ON4214 flag in the device description.
