The content of a line in the logical display buffer of the operator's console of the printer. When a write operation occurs, normally a critical message, to one of the LineText strings, the agent should make that line displayable if a physical display is present. Writing a zero length string clears the line. It is an implementation-specific matter as to whether the agent allows a line to be overwritten before it has been cleared. Printer generated strings shall be in the localization specified by prtConsoleLocalization. Management Application generated strings should be localized by the Management Application. Additional information: The proprietary objects BACKGROUND-STATUS-MSG-LINE1-PART1 and BACKGROUND-STATUS-MSG-LINE2-PART1 should be used to write messages to the control panel display. prtConsoleDisplayBufferText.1.[1..6] map to logical lines 1-6 of the display. Most of the time the display will show a single one or two line message. This message can be retrieved by reading prtConsoleDisplayBufferText.1.1 and prtConsoleDisplayBufferText.1.2. In this case prtConsoleDisplayBufferText.1.[3..6] will be NULL. If prtConsoleDisplayBufferText.1.3 or prtConsoleDisplayBufferText.1.4 is not NULL, the display will be alternating. If prtConsoleDisplayBufferText.1.5 and prtConsoleDisplayBufferText.1.6 are NULL, the display will alternate prtConsoleDisplayBufferText.1.1 and prtConsoleDisplayBufferText.1.2 with prtConsoleDisplayBufferText.1.3 and prtConsoleDisplayBufferText.1.4. If prtConsoleDisplayBufferText.1.5 or prtConsoleDisplayBufferText.1.6 is not NULL, the display will show prtConsoleDisplayBufferText.1.1 and prtConsoleDisplayBufferText.1.2 then prtConsoleDisplayBufferText.1.3 and prtConsoleDisplayBufferText.1.4 then prtConsoleDisplayBufferText.1.5 and prtConsoleDisplayBufferText.1.6. The display will alternate between line pairs at three second intervals. ::= { prtConsoleDisplayBufferEntry 2 } SYNTAX INTEGER ACCESS read-only STATUS optional DESCRIPTION This object, in conjunction with prtConsoleOffTime, defines the current status of the light. If both prtConsoleOnTime and prtConsoleOffTime are non-zero, the lamp is blinking and the values presented define the on time and off time, respectively, in milliseconds. If prtConsoleOnTime is zero and prtConsoleOffTime is non-zero, the lamp is off. If prtConsoleOffTime is zero and prtConsoleOnTime is non-zero, the lamp is on. If both values are zero the status of the lamp is undefined. Additional information: There are three control panel LED's: Ready (1), Data (2), and Attention (3). The Ready and Data LED' s will report 500 when they are on or blinking. The Attention LED will report 250 when it is on or blinking. This object will report 0 for all LED's when they are off.
