Xerox FS 5250, User’s Guide
If you wish to operate in default PCL mode, the box is ready to operate when
delivered. It is important that you do not change the position of the address switch.
Note that operation mode is outside of the B, A & T positions.
If you wish to select XES, you must follow the instructions in the below section
“Changing the Driver”.
Changing the Driver:
To change from PCL to XES driver, the rotary switch has to be in position T at
power on. Current printer driver is indicated on printout. Now turn the rotary
switch to position B (XES). New position is then indicated as “alternate printer
driver” (XES) on second printout. When correct position is obtained, turn rotary
switch away from B, A or T positions (any other position will do). Power the
converter OFF and ON again. The new driver is now active. (If you wish to
reinstall the PCL driver later on, repeat the above, setting the switch into the A
(PCL) position instead of the B (XES) position).
6.2. Emulation
If you wish to see the current emulation, you can generate a test print out by
turning the address switch to the T-position.
In Xerox FS 5250 you can select emulation in two ways. Either via the
address switch (see below) or you can do it via the line by activating FSL
function Y37 (only in PCL mode).
The following emulations are supported by the Xerox FS 5250:
IBM 3812 / 5219 / 3816
IBM 5224
IBM 5225
IBM 5256
IBM 4234
IBM 4245/6262
As default the Xerox FS 5250 will emulate IBM 3812/5219/3816.
As default the Xerox FS 5250 IPC will emulate IPDS
6.2.1 Via the Line
Selecting emulation via the line can be done in PCL only!
You can set the desired emulation in FSL function Y37.
Note that if you select emulation via function 37, you must physically write
the emulation. See the chart in the following for details.

6.2.3 Address Setting
via the address switch
To select the desired address using the rotary address switch follow these
steps. The steps 1 through 4 are mandatory, whereas the steps 4 through 6
are optional.
1.Power off the Xerox FS 5250.
2.Disconnect the T-cable
3.Set the address switch to the desired address. The options are 0-6.
4.Power on the Xerox FS 5250. The desired address will be set at this
point of time.
5.To verify the address turn the switch to the “T” position to print the
current settings printout.
6. Turn the switch back to the desired address number.
The default configuration of the Xerox FS 5250 can be used for most
application programs and uses. You should only change the address
and the emulation if necessary. Change only the rest of the settings if
you have special requirements.
6.2.4 Dual Printer Emulation
PCL only
With IPDS support in the Xerox FS 5250, you have the option of configuring
a second emulation on a different address.
You select a second emulation via the line in function Y37 and both
parameters (n1 and n2) in Y37 must be specified.
The parameter n1 sets the printer emulation. Note that you will have to
physically write the IBM printer number of the desired emulation. For IPDS,
you must write: *IPDS. Parameter n2 specifies the device address.
- 18 -
Connections and Installation
Xerox FS 5250, User’s Guide
NOTE:
The device address (n2) must be different from the address switch
setting or this command will only modify the primary printer emulation
without creating a secondary.
One non-IPDS and one IPDS emulation can be defined.
The secondary printer device will be deleted if you attempt to configure two
similar devices (e.g. two non-IPDS devices) or if Y37 is used without
specifying n2.
For this change to become effective, you must turn power to the converter off
for approx. 10 seconds and then back on.
Non-IPDS as primary emulation
If the primary printer emulation (set via the address switch) is set to nonIPDS, you can set the second emulation via the twinax port activating Y37.
E.g.
Primary emulation:non-IPDS (set via address switch)
Second emulation:%Y37,*IPDS,6%%X1
You have now a non-IPDS primary emulation, and a second IPDS emulation
answering on device address 6.
As an alternative setup, you can also use the Centronics port activating
function Y249, Enter Engineering Mode.
E.g.:
Primary emulation:non-IPDS (set via address switch)
Second emulation:%Y249, password%
2)
%Y37,*IPDS,5%%X1
IPDS as primary emulation
If the primary emulation is set to IPDS (set via the address switch) the only
way to set a second emulation is through the Centronics port enabling
function Y249, Enter Engineering Mode. You must still set function Y37 to
the desired emulation.
E.g.
Primary emulation:IPDS (set via address switch)
Second emulation:%Y249,password%
%Y37,3812,1%%X1
2
As the password is sensitive information, please contact point of purchase for details

6.5.2 Timeout
The Xerox FS 5250 enables printer sharing between the system and a PC.
For this purpose it is possible to specify a timeout period.
If the printer is receiving input on the parallel port, for example, and there is
a break in the transmission of data, the other input ports will not be polled for
the period specified.
The factory default timeout is 20 seconds. The timeout may be changed
to suit your requirements. This is done by sending a new setup to the Xerox
FS 5250 input port where you want it to take effect.
When specifying the timeout it is also possible to specify a user string. A
user string may be used for changing from one symbol set (e.g. Roman 8) to
another (e.g. IBM-PC8), for example.
NOTE:
Settings on the twinax input port are automatically re-established after
another input port has been using the printer.
On the parallel and RS input port, you have to program the required
setup yourself.
For more detailed information on the commands required, see the section
"Port Share Option".

8. Function Selection via the Line
NOTE:
This section is a brief description of how to set up the interface from
the line using FSL Functions.
The guidelines in this section are very basic and limit themselves to what
you need to know. For further details on the supported FSL functions, you
are referred to the Programmers Guide, doc. no. D62081. The Programmer's
Guide will contain a complete list of the supported functions with description,
notes and examples.
FSL functions are special commands in the data stream which set up the
Xerox FS 5250 and consequently the printer to function in a specific way.
Some FSL Functions differ according to whether you are in PCL or in XES
mode.
Appendix A of this manual contains a Quick Reference Guide to the FSL
functions. This list only comprises the syntax and parameters of the
supported FSL functions. The reference guide will contain remarks on
deviations as to XES or PCL
8.1. Syntax of an FSL Function
The special sequence that the interface will interpret as an FSL Function is
shown below:
%Y<function number>,<parameters>%
where % is the defined escape character. See the description below on the
Escape Character.
- 27 -
Function Selection via the Line
Xerox FS 5250, User’s Guide
8.2. The Escape Character
The Xerox FS 5250 is managed by special es cape sequences sent to the
printer via the line. Escape se quences are command sequences preceded
by a defined escape character. When an escape character appears in the
data stream, the printer will inter pret the characters following as a command
string and not as characters to be printed.
When you have defined an escape character, you can:
*Configure the interface according to your needs.
*Send all XES/ PCL commands in HEX code (00 to FF) to the interface
*Download settings to the Xerox FS 5250
*Send commands to the Xerox FS 5250
(save the temporary memory area in the permanent memory area,
etc.)
When a character has been defined as an escape character, you will not be
able to use it as a normal character and print it. However, you do not need to
have an escape character defined perma nently. When it has served its
purpose, it can be removed.
The escape character described in this manual is different from the printer
escape character and the IBM escape character and cannot be used for
sending native printer commands, UDKs or system commands.
This chapter explains how to configure and manage the Xerox FS 5250 by
the use of Escape Sequences. It also explains how to save the interface
settings.
NOTE:
The factory defaults of the printer will normally suffice for most uses,
and in most cases your software will control the facilities described
below. This means that you will be able to connect the printer to your
host system and start printing without changing the printer settings.
The settings should only be changed, if your software or hardware have
special requirements.

Xerox FS 5250, User’s Guide
8.3. Defining a Temporary Escape Character
No escape character is defined when you receive the printer. If you wish to
change the settings of the printer from the host system, you will have to
define the escape character. See below how to define "%" as the tem porary
escape character.
NOTE:
The characters "," ";" and ":" must never be used as escape characters,
as they are used as separators in escape sequences and will be ignored by the printer.
The same applies to 0-9, A-F, a-f and K,S,T,X,Y,Z, simple quote ('), &
and ?. These must not be used.
CAUTION!
Avoid using your national characters as ESC characters.
The following EBCDIC HEX codes have been defined as national
language characters and must not be used as ESC characters

Defining a temporary escape character.
The five characters shown should be sent to the printer from the host
system. The escape character is not defined permanently. When the
converter is turned off, it will be lost. See "Defining a Permanent Escape
Character" for information on the definition of a permanent escape character.
8.4. Removing Temporary Escape Character
If you wish to remove the temporary escape character so that it may be used
