SPECIAL FEATURES

Xerox Special Transparency mode allows you to send text,
control codes, font data, and graphic data to the printer. When
the printer is in this transparency mode, all IBM control codes
and commands are stripped from the input data and discarded. 

This mode allows you to define command/data in ISO6937
hexadecimal, and text strings in EBCDIC, which can be sent to
the printer. This transparency mode is invoked when the Xerox
special transparency entry string is detected in the data-stream.

The entry string is:

¬

(EBCDIC X‘4F 5F')

It is terminated by the Xerox Special Transparency mode exit
string.

The exit string is:

(EBCDIC X‘5B')

 The format of the data is defined below:

¬

$

¬

The command to enter the Xerox Special
Transparency mode.

The hex values which define ISO6937 code
points. Only the characters A-F and 0-9 are valid
characters for defining the hex codes. All other
characters, commands, and control codes are
stripped out.

An EBCDIC text string which must be enclosed in
either single or double quotes. Only
alphanumeric characters and spaces are allowed
between the quotes. These are translated to the
equivalent ISO6937 value for printing.

$

The interface escape character which terminates
the Xerox Special Transparency mode.

Note: If an error is detected during transparency, for example, an
odd number of bytes or a byte not in the range of F0-F9 or C1-
C6, an appropriate error message is logged. In this mode hex
values between 81-86 are treated as if they are equivalent to C1-
C6.
