‘Carriage control character’
Carriage control character specifies the type of carriage control in the line data. This infor-
mation is ignored if the data consists of structured fields only.
All data sets must be in SPDS format, i.e. consist of structured fields, line data or a mixture
of both. In line data and mixed data, each line commences with a carriage control byte.
Available options: ASA
IBM
OCE / SNI
’Table reference character'
TRC specifies the interpretation of a TRC byte in line data.
In line data, the second character in each line can be interpreted as a TRC byte (Table Ref-

Available options: none (no interpretation of TRC bytes)

ticket for each print file. The function does not work, if the pagedef and
libraries are defined in the printer defaults only. If the Carriage Control
Character (parameter Pdscc) is not defined in the job ticket, the default
