Printer Devices |
|
PxPlus device drivers for printers are used to consolidate mnemonics and (legacy) control sequences into a single file to be called from the main program whenever the target printer is opened.
A printer device can also be defined to the system by a logical device descriptor or link file. This type of file is used in PxPlus to define the actual device path and device type. The use of a link file allows you to maintain a common printer name (alias) that will represent all possible print destinations from your application. Link files can be edited directly or maintained using the PxPlus utility *UCL.
