• INSFl.T CURSOR (IC) - The IC order moves the cursor to the location specified by the
current buffer address.
• PROGRAM TAB (PT) - The PT order advances the current buffer address to the address of
the first character position within the next unprotected field.
• REPEAT TO ADDRESS (RA) - The RA order stores a specified alphanumeric or null
character in all buffer locations from the current buffer address up to the specified stop
address.
• ERASE UNPROTECTED TO ADDRESS (EUA) -The EUA order inserts nulls in all unpro-
tected buffer locations from the current buffer address up to the specified stop address.
PRINTOUT FORMAT ORDERS. The Printout Format Orders are stored in the buffer as
control characters. They are executed during a printout operation. As the HP 2625A provides
alternate means for printing data, it offers no support for the 3276 format orders.
PRINT OPERATIONS
Your terminal offers no support for the Print or Copy routines supported by the IBM 3276.
Instead, you may configure Port 1 for an external device and use the function key labels to
obtain a printed copy of the screen display.
Furthermore, if your terminal has the integral printer option, you may print the contents of
the screen to the integral printer without worrying about cable connections or configuration
settings. The following paragraphs describes these features.
NOTE: The extended character set of the IBM text print feature is not supported, so the
Suppress Index (S1) feature of a 328X printer equipped with the text feature cannot
be duplicated. Also, while new Hewlett-Packard equipment can print the various
IBM EBCDIC symbols, older equipment may not be able to print the cent sign
(0),
the split vertical bar (:), or the logical not sign ( -').
Copying Data To An External Printer
After connecting and configuring an external printer to Port 1, you may obtain a printed copy
of the screen display by using the IBM Aids function key labels:
