Extended Attribute Buffer Support
The ULTRA supports the Extended Attribute Buffer (EAB) feature found
in many IBM 3287 printers. EAB is supported only for DSC data streams
and only when the printer attached to the ULTRA is using the ASCII
character set. This feature extends the number of characters available for
transmission to the printer. These characters are found in the following
Translate Table:
7 DSC to ASCII APL
To use this feature, the ULTRA must have Option #10  Output in ASCII
or EBCDIC set to (A) ASCII; Option #11  APL Output must be set to
Yes; and Option #20  Physical Buffer Size must be set to (B) 2K with
EAB or (D) 4K with EAB. Also refer to the APL Support section above.
