How To Fix PO198 - Field contents H, V and D are defaults

PO198 - Overview

• Message type: E = Error

• Message class: PO - Spooler message

• Message number: 198

• Message text: Field contents H, V and D are defaults

What causes this issue?

You have added a new print control to the device type that you are
defining. The print control was added from the set of standard print
controls defined in your system.
This message reminds you that the attribute settings for the print
control (flags Hex-display, Variant of print control, and Default
value) were taken over from the default print control.
You may therefore wish to alter the settings of these attributes for
use with this device type.
Further, the replacement text field for this print control is still
empty. This field contains the escape sequence that is to be sent to
the printer. As long as this field remains empty, the print control
remains unimplemented and inactive.
