To Set Initialization Strings

If you are plotting to an unsupported, nonsystem plotter in Emulation mode, you can use ASCII text initialization strings to prepare the plotter for printing, set device-specific options, and restore the plotter to its original state. Only advanced users should use initialization strings.

  1. Click Application menu Print Manage Plotters.
  2. Double-click the plotter configuration (PC3) file whose initialization string settings you want to change.
  3. In the Plotter Configuration Editor, click the Device and Document Settings tab.
  4. In the tree view, select Initialization Strings to view the initialization string settings.
  5. Enter a Pre-Initialization string, Post-Initialization string, and Termination string as required.
  6. Click OK.
