For TN5250 printers, when the session is established, configuration for the printer can be passed to the IBMi/AS400 to specify the type of printer and whether it supports print Transformation and other features.
Enter a text string of the form NAME:VALUE; for each Telnet Environment Variable. Note that there is a custom editor for this property that is highly recommended--simply click on the blue Edit icon to pop-up the editor. Only specify those values that you need to, as a blank value will not be sent to the system.
