pcl-print-density

This single-valued attribute specifies the number of characters per inch to be printed on a line when NetSpool converts SNA character string (SCS) and 3270 data streams to PCL data streams. NetSpool uses this value only when the SCS data stream does not specify the print density. NetSpool always uses this value for 3270 data streams.

ISPF field name

NetSpool PCL Conversion: Print density

Allowed values

An integer 1 - 255.

Default value

The PCL Pitch or Horizontal Motion Index command that is specified in the document-header attribute is used. If these PCL commands are not specified, the print density set on the printer's control panel is used.

Usage guidelines

  • NetSpool uses this attribute only when netspool-formatting=convert-to-pcl. Otherwise, this attribute is ignored.
  • If scs-automatic-page-orientation=yes, you must specify a value in this attribute.
