Hi Jim,

The USA/Canada mapping of EBCDIC character hex '5F is
to the logical not character. The ASCII equivalence of
this character in the USA/Canada is typically hex 'AA.

Since you are using Host Print Transform, I would
suggest verifying you selected ASCII character AA as
the Code V trigger character in your IBM 6400
configuration.

HTH

Best Regards,

/Paul
