BLANKFIELD { EMPTY | SINGLE | FULL }
specifies whether trailing spaces should be added for a completely blank field. 
EMPTY specifies that no spaces should be added. SINGLE specifies that one space 
should be inserted. FULL specifies that spaces should be added to the end of the 
field.  The default value is EMPTY.

BLANKONLY { ON | OFF }
specifies whether to append trailing spaces to inbound 3270 fields. If 
BLANKONLY is set ON, EM3270 will only send an inbound space if a space was 
written to that position by the host application. If BLANKONLY is set OFF, 
EM3270 will send an inbound space if any non-null character was written to that 
position.  BLANKONLY defaults to OFF.

BRACKET { ON | OFF }
specifies whether EM3270 issues a Setmode 112 to a 3270 terminal when the host 
session goes between brackets.  The default is OFF.

COLOR { ON | OFF | EXTENDED }
specifies the handling of color when accessing a 3270 or 5250 host application with 
a 6530 emulator, such as PCT or OV/TTE. When set to ON, EM3270 uses the user-
exit procedures described in Appendix E to map field colors. When set to 
EXTENDED, EM3270 automatically selects colors based upon the field attributes in 
the data stream. The default value is OFF.

CPRINTER file-name
specifies a file name to be accessed during host and operator-initiated terminal-to-
printer copy operations.  file-name is typically a printer device name or the spooler 
subdevice name.  The copy can be triggered by an SCOBOL PRINT SCREEN 
statement, a COPY command from the IBM host, a WCC Start Print bit set on by 
the IBM host, or by the operator pressing the PRINT key. If CPRINTER is not 
specified, all of the above actions are ignored by the EM3270 emulator. The screen 
print is done by opening the file file-name, reading the terminal screen, writing the 
screen data out one line at a time, then closing the output file. CPRINTER has 
meaning only when DEVTYPE is set to CRT. See the HIDDEN parameter below.
