Override Host
OVERRIDE HOST determines whether the printer executes certain commands sent
by the host, or continues to use the current printer settings. The following host
commands are ignored when OVERRIDE HOST is enabled: line length, forms
length, lines per inch (LPI), characters per inch (CPI), print quality, and text
orientation (that is, left to right). When OVERRIDE HOST is enabled, these settings
retain their operator panel settings.
Note: Host margin and tab settings will be used whether or not OVERRIDE HOST
is enabled.
v
Disable (the default). Allows certain host commands (line length, forms length,
LPI, CPI, print quality, and text orientation) to override operator panel settings.
Note that the information appearing on the message display may not match the
data stream setting. No values will change upon initial selection of the disable
option.
v Enable
. Permits operator panel settings to override host data stream commands.

IGP feature, and Hex Transparent control code sequence, in the new position
