Converting line data to an SCS or DSC/DSE data stream (basic mode)

When you select the VTAM® protocol in the printer definition, IP PrintWay™ basic mode automatically converts line data into either SCS or DSC/DSE format except when None is selected in the IP PrintWay basic mode Formatting field.

IP PrintWay uses the ANSI or machine carriage controls in the input data stream to format data. IP PrintWay supports the print no space, space 1 line, space 2 lines, and space 3 lines carriage controls. If FCB processing is enabled, IP PrintWay also supports skip-to-channel 1-9, A, B and C (1-12) carriage controls. For more information about how to enable FCB processing in the printer definition, see Using an FCB to format data.
