Print Functions

The Terminal Manager also allows for limited support of a printer attached directly to the terminal. You must ensure that communications between the printer and terminal meet all the restrictions that the devices require (some terminals, for example, require the printer and the terminal to run at the same baud rate).

The Terminal Manager supports two entries, one (EP) turns on a mode where data sent to the terminal is also sent to the printer. The Terminal Manager does not care whether or not the data is also displayed on the screen at the same time. The Disable-print function (DP) is used to turn off this mode.

The VT-100 supports an attached printer. It has several print modes, but the only one that the Terminal Manager supports is the "pass through" mode where data sent to the terminal is passed through to the printer. This is enabled by sending "ESC[5i" and disabled by sending "ESC[4i". The completed entry is:
