Configuration Possibilities

112 AXIS 5550 User’s Manual

The AXIS 5550 solution to this problem is to assign a character set

conversion filter to a logical printer, and then link that logical printer to

the host causing the problem.

You select your desired conversion filter by setting the Character Set

Conversion (PRx_CSET.) parameter. The output from the conversion filter

is always IBM PC Set 2 (Code Page 437), and this is the character set the

printer must be set up for.

Example:

In order to direct print jobs to the printer connected to the AXIS 5550,

you should assign the host to a separate logical printer, and install a

character set conversion filter.

Follow the instructions below to change the conversion filter:

1. From the print server’s internal Web page, select Admin | Logical

Printers.

2. Select the PR1 tab.

3. Set the parameter Physical Port to USB1.

4. Set the parameter Character Set Conversion to ISO>IBM.

5. Click the OK button.

6. Select the PR2 tab.

7. Set the parameter Physical Port to USB1.

8. Set the parameter Character Set Conversion to DEC>IBM.

9. Click the OK button.

The ISO 8859-2 printer data that is sent to logical printer PR1 converts to

IBM PC Set 2 and is printed on USB1. Similarly, the DEC printer data that

is sent to logical printer PR2 converts to IBM PC Set 2 and is printed on

USB1.

Adding Strings Before

and After Print Jobs

These string functions provide a way to send printer control commands

before and after each print job. They may be specified individually for

each logical printer.

All strings are entered as hexadecimal byte values.

Your network contains a host using the character set ISO 8859-2 and a host using the

character set DEC.
