Notes:
1
The 4245, 5256, and 5262 work station printers do not support the hardware function required for alternative CHRID processing. If a nondefault character set and code page is selected for these printers, a diagnostic message is sent and processing continues using the default character set.
2
If the printer supports the code page specified (the second part (yyy) of the CHRID parameter) but not the character set (xxx), then the character set supported by the printer is used along with the specified code page. For example, if 337 037 (extended character set for displays) is specified for the 5224 and 5225 Printers, the print file is printed with character set 101, code page 037.
3
In some cases, the printer will substitute a supported code page for an unsupported code page. Consult the various printer reference guides for defaults on the code page mapping.
4
If the printer does not support or map the code page specified, an attempt is made by the system to find a satisfactory substitute. This column shows the code page substitutes that are made if the specified printer supports the substitute.
5
The 3812, 3816, 4214, 4224, 4230, 4234, and 4247 Printers support character set 697 (full character set). This character set contains all the characters in the limited character sets. For example, 697 037 contains all the characters in 101 037 or 337 037 (extended character set for displays).
6
This language is considered a primary language group. All other entries, if any, under the primary language group are considered as alternative language groups.
7
This function is supported by 4234 IPDS version and 64xx with IPDS feature only.
8
This function is supported by 4234 SCS version only.
9
The 64xx SCS emulation mode must be set to 4234.
10
This code page provides support for the Euro currency symbol.
