Define CR (Carriage Return) Code
This parameter forces the printer to insert an automatic Line Feed code into
the data stream whenever a Carriage Return code occurs. This is to be used
only if the host computer does not send line feeds to the printer.
•
CR = CR (factory default). Does not perform a line feed. The next print
position will be print position 1 of the current line.
•
CR = CR + LF . Performs an automatic line feed. The next print position
will be print position 1 of the next line.
Define LF (Line Feed) Code
This parameter forces the printer to insert an automatic Carriage Return code
into the data stream whenever a Line Feed code occurs. This can be used in
most installations, but it is required if the host computer does not send
carriage returns to the printer.
•
LF = LF (factory default). Does not perform an automatic carriage return.
The next print position will be the current print position of the next line.
•
LF = CR + LF . Performs an automatic carriage return. The next print
position will be print position 1 of the next line.
Autowrap
This parameter determines if text will wrap to the next line when the line of
text exceeds the right margin.
•
Disable (factory default). Truncates the text beyond the right margin until
a CR or CR + LF is received.
•
Enable . Automatically inserts a CR + LF after a full print line.
PGL SFCC
You can specify which hex code (1-255) will be used as the Special Function
Control Code (SFCC). The factory default setting is 126. The SFCC denotes
that the following data is a PGL command.
PI Slew Range
You can specify how many lines the paper will feed.
•
16 (factory default). A paper slew of 0-15 will move 1-16 lines.
•
15 . A paper slew of 1-15 will move 1-15 lines. A paper slew of 0 will move
1 line.
CR Edit
This parameter determines if a carriage return will be followed by a line feed.
•
Disable (factory default). The printer ignores all carriage returns that are
not followed by line feeds.
•
Enable . The printer processes all carriage returns, even for those that are
not followed by line feeds.
