Error handling
The Xerox Coax/Twinax Option (XCTO) supports IBM error types
and IBM error code actions as well as reporting XES formatting
errors and initialisation errors. XCTO recognises the following
error categories:
IBM datastream error type1
IBM datastream error type2
IBM datastream error type3 or invalid SCS parameter
IBM datastream error type4 or invalid SCS command
XES formatting error
Initialisation error.
Errors are logged internally by XCTO as well as being passed to
the target printer. This allows the target printer to include XCTO
errors on the normal printer status sheet which is printed at the
end of a job. However, it is up to the target printer, not XCTO,
to include this data in the status sheet if required.  Table 6-1
shows the various error codes which are reported and their
meanings.
IBM error types
In addition to being reported to the target printer, IBM error
types are reported back to the host through the coax/twinax
protocols.  
IBM error types fall into the four categories described below.
For each error category an error action may be defined by the
user via an IBM datastream command.
