- SHOW NAU
Sends a message to the terminal from which the command
was issued, listing the Network Addressable Units (NAUs) currently
engaged in Pass Thru sessions. Use this command to check the status
of an NAU (OPEN or ACTIVE).
The value of NAU can be an LU name configured in the file NMCONFIG.PUB.SYS, or it can be ALL, which specifies all LUs engaged in LU.T1, LU.T2,
or LU.T3 sessions
- SEND HOLD TO NAU
(LU.T1 only) Emulates pressing
the [HOLD PRINT] key for the specified NAU. The [HOLD PRINT] key suspends processing of host data by the printer. If
you wish to transmit one of the PA keys or the [CANCEL] key, you must first emulate pressing the [HOLD PRINT] key. This command can be issued for sessions in OPEN or ACTIVE
state.
The value of NAU can be an LU name configured in the file NMCONFIG.PUB.SYS, or it can be ALL, which specifies all LUs engaged in LU.T1 sessions.
If the printer is left in the HOLD PRINT state, a 10-minute
timer will notify the host that the device requires intervention.
When an HP printer is set up to accept both LU.T1 and LU.T3
Pass Thru sessions, you are not required to enter the SEND HOLD command before, and the SEND ENABLE command after, the SEND PA1, SEND PA2, or SEND CANCEL command. However, if you enter the SEND HOLD or SEND ENABLE command, no error will occur.
- SEND ENABLE TO NAU
(LU.T1 only) Emulates pressing
the [ENABLE PRINT] key for the specified NAU. Use the SEND ENABLE command to reenable the printer after you issue a SEND HOLD command. The SEND ENABLE command can be issued for sessions in OPEN or ACTIVE
state.
The value of NAU can be an LU name configured in the file NMCONFIG.PUB.SYS, or it can be ALL, which specifies all LUs engaged in LU.T1 sessions.
- SEND PA1 TO NAU or SEND PA2 TO NAU
(LU.T1 only) Emulates sending
the [PA1] or [PA2] key to the specified NAU. The [PA1] and [PA2] keys have different functions depending on which host
application you are running. This command can be issued only for sessions
in ACTIVE state.
The value of NAU can be an LU name configured in the file NMCONFIG.PUB.SYS, or it can be ALL, which specifies all LUs engaged in LU.T1 sessions.
- SEND CANCEL TO NAU
(LU.T1 only) Emulates sending
the [CANCEL] key for the specified NAU. Cancels the job that is currently printing. This command
can be issued only for sessions in ACTIVE state.
The value of NAU can be an LU name configured in the file NMCONFIG.PUB.SYS, or it can be ALL, which specifies all LUs engaged in LU.T1 sessions.
- SEND CLOSE TO NAU
Closes the spooled printer file for the specified
NAU and opens a new spool file. Use the SEND CLOSE command to close the spool file and print it without
interrupting your Pass Thru session. This command can be issued only
for sessions in ACTIVE state.
The value of NAU can be an LU name configured in the file NMCONFIG.PUB.SYS, or it can be ALL, which specifies all LUs engaged in LU.T1 or LU.T3
sessions.
- SET PAGE = n FOR NAU
Sets printer page length to n lines for the printer specified by NAU. The value of n can be from 1 through 99 for LU.T3 printers, or from
1 through 102 for LU.T1 printers. This command can be issued for
sessions in OPEN or ACTIVE state.
The value of NAU can be an LU name configured in the file NMCONFIG.PUB.SYS, or it can be ALL, which specifies all LUs engaged in LU.T1 or LU.T3
sessions.
SNA IMF will execute the commands in the order presented.
Errors encountered by Pass Thru while sending new printer page length
information or transmitting a key to the host will be logged on
the console, just as other printer emulation errors are logged.
Parsing errors will be reported on the terminal ($STDLIST) of the
user who entered the command.
