Emulation modes
The Axiohm A795 printer may be operated in a number of different emulation modes. However,
printing characteristics and defaults may differ, depending on the desired mode. For instance, two-
color paper and ColorPOS™ commands and features are available only in A795 native mode.

The following list clarifies how the A795 printer will
behave in each emulation mode:
Two-color paper and ColorPOS™ commands and features
are supported only in A795 native mode.
•
If the paper type is changed using the 0x1D 0x81
command, the font and default lines per inch (LPI) will
be setup as in the table above.
•
If only the font is changed, the default LPI will
automatically be changed as in the table above.
•
If emulation is switched to Epson, A794 or A793
emulation(s), the paper type will automatically be
changed to monochrome paper, and the font and LPI
will be changed as in the table above.
•
If emulation is switched from any emulation to A795
native, the font and LPI will remain unchanged because
the A795 native mode supports all font and LPI options
offered in the emulation modes.
•
The “Set Default LPI” option in the configuration
menu is not offered in Epson emulation made.
The LPI is set at 6.00.
