"No Line Formatting" Option isn't Explained in SNA Server Help (178514)
The information in this article applies to:
- Microsoft SNA Server 3.0 SP2
- Microsoft SNA Server 3.0 SP3
This article was previously published under Q178514 SYMPTOMS
The "No Line Formatting" option for 3270 Print Sessions was added in SNA
Server 3.0 Service Pack 2. However, this option is not explained when
selecting Help in the 3270 tab of the printer session properties dialog.
CAUSE
The explanation for this new 3270 print session option was inadvertently
left out of the Online Help for SNA Server 3.0 Service Pack 2 and Service
Pack 3.
STATUS
Microsoft has confirmed this to be a problem in SNA Server version 3.0 SP2
and SP3. This problem has been corrected in SNA Server 4.0
MORE INFORMATION
This problem was scheduled to be fixed in SNA Server 3.0 Service Pack 3
but was inadvertently left out.
The SNA Server 4.0 Online Help contains the following explanation for this
option:
No Line Formatting:
Prevents the SNA Print Service from inserting its own Carriage Return/Line
Feed (CR/LF) according to the dimensions specified in the Default Page
Width field (also on this property page). As No Line Formatting is a
special case, this box is usually not checked. It is a useful option when
using physical printers that do their own wrapping or are told to do their
own wrapping with an Esc sequence. The Esc sequence that causes a printer
to do its own End-of-line wrap on PCL printers is <Esc>&s0C.
