The PAD Printer Profile screen, as shown in Figure 7-9 “PAD Printer Profile Screen (Host-Based)” is used to define the characteristics
associated with a PAD printer profile. This profile screen is used for host-based
management only. For PC-based management, you should use the regular
PC-based Printer Profile screen shown in Figure 7-7 “Printer Profile Screen (PC-Based)” for PAD printers.

Configurator utility (TTUTIL.PUB.SYS,
to be associated with the profile instead of the system-supplied
printer type. Enter the fully qualified file name (filename.group.account).
Refer to the Customizing Terminal and Printer Type Files
with Workstation Configurator for more information on
TTUTIL.PUB.SYS.

Specifies whether at connection establishment, the
PAD is set to default X.3 printer parameter values.
- X.3 setting requested?
Specifies whether changes to X.3 parameters
may be made after connection establishment.
- Device class names
Device classes provide a means of accessing devices
associated with a profile. Each device class name is up to eight
alphanumeric characters beginning with a letter.
Up to 450 device class names may be used for a printer profile;
the total number of supported, configured device classes defined
in all profiles is 2000. Use the [Go To CLASSES]
key to go to an Additional Device Class Names screen for entering
additional device class names.
