Logging Settings (Reflection HP)

HP Terminal > File > Logging

Use this dialog box to configure logging and to enable serial device-to-host communications.

Logging copies data from display memory to the printer each time a linefeed is received so that attributes, such as underline, are printed. Normally logging is enabled by the host. However, if you want to configure a user-initiated logging session, select the Logging on check box.

Logging serves two different functions in Reflection:

To provide user-initiated logging of your terminal session.
To accommodate host printing, where an application turns on logging and starts sending data to either a printer or a file.

Difference between logging and printing:

Logging parallels terminal-host printing.
In logging, the host controls printing, bypassing Reflection. The Windows printer driver is still used, unless you enable Bypass Windows print driver in the Print Setup dialog box.

Serial Device-to-Host Communications	Reflection supports serial device-to-host communications (also called printer-to-host or printer 2-way communications). You can enable serial device-to-host communications when you want a device on a serial port (such as a printer or bar code reader) to be able to send information to a host via Reflection.
Logging On Check Box	Logging is usually enabled by the host. Select Logging on if you want to configure a user-initiated logging session.
Log Output to Serial Device	Select Serial device if you want a device on a serial port (such as a printer or bar code reader) to be able to send information to a host via Reflection. Selecting this check box enables VT terminal serial device-to-host communications.
