Table 2-33. PCC ASSIGN parameter options and definitions
Option Definition
byte The printer carriage control byte that is being defined. Its value is in the range 0 to 255
(X00 to XFF).
ccln carriage control line number.
Specifies the action that should be taken when the printer carriage control byte defined
in the byte field is encountered.
A ccln consists of the following:
• Space print parameters
This has the following components:
– field1 Specifies the carriage action to take before printing. (An example is the
ANSI carriage control.)
- SPm Space m lines before printing.
- SKn Skip to channel n before printing.
– field2 Specifies whether printing occurs for this record:
- P Print the output data at the line number computed after field1 is
processed.
- N No printing occurs for this record (default).
– field3 Specifies the carriage action to take after printing. (An example is the
IBM1403 carriage control).
- SPm Space m lines after printing.
- SKn Skip to channel n after printing.
NOTE: Each of the three fields shown above is optional; however, you must
specify at least one field. The range for variables m and n is 0 to 15.
• Bottom Of Form actions (optional)
–TOF
When spacing causes bottom of form (BOF) to occur, instructs the system to
go to the top of form (TOF) on the next page and to stop spacing.
–IGN
When spacing causes the bottom of form (BOF) to occur, instructs the system
to ignore it to continue spacing through the end of the physical page. The page
then transitions to top of form and spacing continues.
– OVR (default)
When spacing causes bottom of form (BOF) to occur, instructs the system to
go to the top of form (TOF) on the next page and to continue spacing.
