Alias Names in UCS Image Tables

The image tables also define alias names for most installation-standard print bands used on the IBM® 4245 and 4248 printers. The IBM-supplied image tables do not provide alias names for the IBM 3262 Model 5 or 6262 Model 14 printers.

Some print bands, such as SN and KA22, do not have alias names because there is no equivalent band on other printers. You can add an alias name by adding or modifying an entry in the appropriate UCS image table. See Adding or Modifying a UCS Image Table Entry. A typical UCS image table entry is shown in Figure 1.

Figure 1. UCS Image Table Entry Format

Notes to Figure 1:

1. This field is optional. The description data field is of variable length, up to a maximum of 32 bytes.
2. This field is optional for the 4245 Printer. For the 3262 Model 5, 4248, and 6262 Model 14, this field does not apply and is set to X'00'.

The contents of the UCS image table UCS5 (IGGUCS5 macro) for the 4245 Printer are shown in Table 1.

The contents of the UCS image table UCS6 (IGGUCS6 macro), for the 4248 printer, are shown in Table 2.

The 3262 Model 5 and 6262 Model 14 printers use the 4248 UCS image table, UCS6. However, IBM does not provide band names or aliases for either the 3262 Model 5 or 6262 Model 14 printer. To use 3262 Model 5 or 6262 Model 14 UCS images, add the names and aliases to UCS6. Adding or Modifying a UCS Image Table Entry describes how to add entries to the UCS image table. For a list of the bands available for the 3262 Model 5, see Table 3. For a list of the bands available for the 6262 Model 14, see IBM 6262 Printer Print Band Manual and IBM 6262 Printer Model 014 User's Guide.
