SEH PS Series - How to Convert Print Data

Print Jobs and Print Data
Print Server User Manual Windows 72
Example
The string 'white' is to be replaced by the string 'black' and the
string 'cat' is to be replaced by 'dog' in the print data.
Filter Function 'Job Start and Job End'
The print server allows the sending of start and end sequences
before/after a print job. These sequences may consist of PRESCRIBE
or ESC commands that trigger a form feed after the print job.
ESC commands consist of job start sequence '\027' followed by the
actual control characters preceded by a backslash and written as a
decimal. Job end sequence '\027 \012', for example, triggers a form
feed after the print job. For more information, please look up the
available ESC commands in your printer manual.
Configuration is done via logical printers, see: 73.
8.4 How to Convert Print Data
The print server offers many filters in order to convert print data.
Filter Function 'ASCII / PostScript'
The print server supports the conversion of print data from ASCII to
PostScript format. Configuration is done via logical printers, see:
73.
Filter Function 'HEX Dump Mode' (Hexadecimal + ASCII)
The print server supports the hex dump mode. The hex dump mode
is used to search for errors in print data in order to detect communi-
cation problems between the computer and the printer.
The hex dump mode displays each character both as hexadecimal
code and ASCII character code. Printer control commands are
printed as hexadecimal values and do not influence the printout in
any way. Configuration is done via logical printers, see: 73.
