Printer SO/SI Presentation

Getting there

  1. Open a printer emulation session.

  2. From the Setup menu, choose View Settings.

This setting specifies the way Reflection treats shift-out and shift-in (SO/SI) characters, when printing host print jobs or terminal screens, in 5250 sessions only. Choose from the following:

Option

Description

SO/SI Rendered as Blanks (default)

Prints SO/SI characters as blank spaces. Select for WYSIWYG printing.

SO/SI Removed

Removes SO/SI characters and the cells they occupy, and condenses the remaining text.

NOTE:Removing cells containing SO/SI characters changes the spacing of the text and may cause columns to go out of alignment.

SO Removed, SI Rendered as 2 Blanks

Removes SO characters, shifts double-byte characters one cell to the left, and prints SI characters as two blank spaces. This option preserves the alignment of columns in host print jobs.
