For example, the application may embolden the word "bold" in the following
sentence by sending:
This is bold<CR> bold<CR><LF>
"Double Strike" corresponds to the previous POCR=ON setting. With "Double
Strike" selected, bolding is accomplished by re-striking the characters at the
same dot positions. This requires a one line backup after printing each <CR>
pass; some applications use many passes to print a single bolded line, so
printing throughput may be reduced accordingly.
With "Bold" selected, bolding is accomplished by rendering the bolded
characters twice, one with a small offset to create a "shadow" effect. The
resulting print is thicker and thus appears darker. This is the same technique
used with the "bold" character attribute selected via emulation escape
sequences.
Form Feed at TOF
This parameter dictates how the printer will respond to a Form Feed Control
Code received from the host computer when it is already at a top-of-form
location.
•
Enable (default). The printer performs the requested form feed and
advances to the next top-of-form.
•
Disable. The printer ignores the Form Feed Control Code sent from the
host.
ESC
This parameter is valid only in the Tally ANSI and LG01 emulations. When set
to Disabled, the ESC control character is ignored. The default is Enable.
Alt ESC (Alternate Escape)
This parameter is only valid in the Tally ANSI and LG01 emulations. When set
to Enabled, a "^" (carat) character in column 1 (left margin) followed by a CR
or a CR LF can be used in place of the ESC control code. The default is
Disable. ESC (see above) must also be Enabled for this to work.
Upper Only
This parameter allows you to set up your printer to print in uppercase
characters only from the active Character Set. When this parameter is
enabled, the lower-case characters in Hex positions 61 through 7A are
overwritten by the uppercase characters in positions 41 through 5A. The
default is Disable.
