AS/400
Xerox provides Work Station Customization Object (WSCO) files to support IBM i V6R1 or later. A Work Station
Customization Object is a lookup table that the host print transform (HPT) uses to translate AS/400 commands to
the equivalent PCL code that is specific to a particular printer. A WSCO file can modify many print features,
including: paper input tray, 2-sided printing, characters per inch, lines per inch, orientation, fonts, and margins.
The XTOOLS library provides a source WSCO file for each supported Xerox
®
printer or device. The library and
installation instructions are available from
To install the XTOOLS library, select the downloadable files for the IBM AS/400 operating system, unzip the
downloaded
XTOOLSxxxx.zip
file, then follow the instructions to install the library. Download and install the
library only once.
