9. Printing
PowerTerm LTC enables you to define print parameters and print the terminal
screen or data transferred from the host application.
The Printer property page and Advanced Printing setup dialogs enables you to
define printing parameters.
Printing can be done in Text mode or in Graphic mode, as well as in Host and UTF-8
data conversion. For IBM 5250 printing emulations, Host printing is enabled.
There are two different modes with different fields enabled:
•
Text mode is designated in the Printer property page by setting the two data
conversion combo boxes (Print Screen and Slave Printer) to None.
•
Graphics mode is graphic printing. It is designated in the Printer property
page by setting the two data conversion combo boxes (Print Screen and
Slave Printer) to Graphics.
