AST 5251/11 / PRINTERS
Some customers using AST 5251/11 are experiencing problems
getting their locally attached printer to do special printing
through emulation (i.e., bold face, italics, etc.). In the event
that you are encountering a problem similar to this, please
consider the following:
1. Be sure that your locally attached printer has
the capability to do the kind of printing which
you request.
2. Determine and send to the printer, through DOS,
the HEX sequence which will output the desired
type of print. This will verify that you are
using the correct HEX sequence and the printer
has the desired capability.
3. Bring up the AST configuration file, "CFG5251",
go into the 'printer strings' menu, and edit the
HEX sequence for the desired printing and save
this configuration.
