Overstrike
This option enables you to print bold characters.
v
Enable (the default). Turns on bold print. When enabled, overstrike printing
slows down the printer.
v
Disable . Turns off bold print.
Define LF Code
v LF = CR + LF (the default). Forces an automatic carriage return with each line
feed command. The next print position is print position 1 of the next line.
v
LF = LF . Does not perform an automatic carriage return. The next print position
will be the current print position of the next line.
P-Series SFCC
This parameter allows you to select which ASCII codes will function as the Special
Function Control Code (SFCC) command delimiter. P-Series codes can use X'00'
through X'7F'. Options include the following:
v
SOH (X'01') (the default.)
v
ESC (X'1B')
v ETX (X'03')
v
CIRCUMFLEX (X'5E') - also called caret (^)
v TILDE (X'7E') - (~)
Note:
SOH, ETX, and ESC are non-printables. The characters (^) and (~) are
printable; however, do not use them as printables in the host data stream if
either is chosen as a delimiter because print errors will occur.
EVFU Select
The EVFU SELECT (Electronic Vertical Format Unit Select) option determines if
EVFU skips can be defined. An EVFU skip is an instruction to move the paper to a
specific location on a form. See the 6500 ASCII Programmer’s Reference Manual for
more information.
v
Enable (the default). Defines EVFU skips.
v Disable . Does not define EVFU skips.
Alternate Set 80-9F
v Control Code
(the default). Interprets data in the range of X'80' through X'9F' as
a control code.
v
Printable . Prints data in the range of X'80' through X'9F'.
