Using the CONTROL, CONTROLBUF, and
SETMODE Operations
CONTROLBUF 109/110/111 — Modify MBCS Translation
The CONTROLBUF 109/110/111 operations modify the type of MBCS translation
performed by a FASTP network print process when CHARMAP JISKANJIKANA is
selected. These CONTROLBUF operations instruct the FASTP network print process
to alter the parameters used in calls to the MBCS_TANDEM_TO_EXTERNAL_
procedure as follows:
•
CONTROLBUF 109 sets the Intermediate flag in the
MBCS_TANDEM_TO_EXTERNAL call to the first word in specified in the buffer
parameter. This operation, along with CONTROLBUF operations 110 and 111,
forces the FASTP network print process to treat other printers like device type (5,7)
when CHARMAP JISKANJIKANA is specified. The syntax of CONTROLBUF 109
is:
where
buffer
contains the word to be used in the Intermediate flag.
•
CONTROLBUF 110 causes a FASTP network print process to use the first 20
bytes specified in the buffer parameter as the Shift-to-DBCS parameter. To force
a FASTP network print process to treat the device like type (5,7) when CHARMAP
JISKANJIKANA is specified, the buffer parameter should contain the two-byte
string <28,38>. The FASTP network print process terminates this string with a null
before passing it to MBCS_TANDEM_TO_EXTERNAL_ procedure. The syntax of
CONTROLBUF 109 is:
where
buffer
contains the two-byte string <28,38> to be used as the
Shift-to-DBCS
parameter.
•
CONTROLBUF 111 supplies an alternate shift-to-one-byte string. To force a
FASTP network print process to treat the device like type (5,7) when CHARMAP
JISKANJIKANA is selected, the buffer parameter must contain the two-byte
string <28, 46>. The syntax of CONTROLBUF 111 is:
where
CONTROLBUF 109 buffer;
CONTROLBUF 110 buffer;
CONTROLBUF 111 buffer;
