PSET^%ZISP: Set Up Special Printer Variables

Reference Type: Supported, Category: Device Handler, Integration Agreement: 3172

Description

This API defines a set of variables that toggle special printer modes. The corresponding fields in the TERMINAL TYPE file (#3.2) entry for the terminal type in question must be set up correctly, because that is where PSET^%ZISP retrieves its output values.

Format

  PSET^%ZISP

Make sure to perform the following steps before calling this API:

  1. NEW all of the following variables.

  2. Set the input variables you want changed.

  3. Call the API.

If you do not follow these steps, the variables could unintentionally assume the values of the variables of the current running task.
