Getting there

Configure text layout options for host screen printing and printer emulation sessions.

Text Format

 

Use printer fonts only

Select to print using only fonts residing on the host printer.

 

Override host page format

When this check box is selected, page formatting specified in the printer session document (Characters per line, Lines per page, Font, and Margins) is used regardless of what the host specifies.

 

Font

Select a font to use.

Note: When you print all or part of a host screen from a terminal session, the font used is the currently configured display font, not the printer font setting configured here.

 

Page Scaling

Click to open the Page Scaling dialog box.

Characters per line

 

Select the maximum number of characters that can be printed on a single line. If a line longer than this value is sent from the host, the line is automatically wrapped.

These settings are ignored when, from the Printer Session Setup dialog box, Transparent mode is selected.

Lines per page

 

Select the number of lines to be printed on each page.

These settings are ignored when, from the Printer Session Setup dialog box, Transparent mode is selected.
