Star Micronics LC-1011C Switch 1 NLQ Direction, Switch 2 Auto Tear-off Long, Switch 5 Zero Style

28Using the EDS Mode

BANK B

Switch 1: NLQ Direction

Selects uni-directional (ON) or bi-directional (OFF) printing for NLQ (Near Letter Quality) printing. Bi-directional printing (OFF) is faster, while uni- directional (ON) printing generally provides better print quality.

Switch 2: Auto Tear-off (Long)

Specifies whether the printer’s auto tear-off (long) feature (page 20) is enabled (OFF) or disabled (ON). Note that this setting controls the application software’s tear-off function only. It does not affect the manual tear-off function that is performed using the control panel buttons as described on page 14. The manual tear-off function is always enabled.

Switch 3: Line Spacing

Selects 1/6-inch (ON) or 1/8-inch (OFF) spacing between lines.

Switch 4: Auto LF with CR

Specifies whether auto LF with CR is enabled (OFF) or disabled (ON). When auto LF with CR is enabled (OFF), the printer automatically performs a line feed whenever it receives a carriage return from the computer. When it is disabled (ON), the computer must send both a line feed code and a carriage return code at the end of each line. Most applications do this automatically. Note the following checkpoints when trying to figure out which setting to use here:

✓If you find that your output is double-spaced when it should not be, turn this switch ON (Disabled).

✓If you find that lines are printing over each other, turn this switch OFF (Enabled).

Switch 5: Zero Style

Specifies whether a normal zero (ON) or a slashed zero (OFF) will be used. Selecting Normal (ON) prints zeros without lines running through them, while Slashed (OFF) prints zeros with a diagonal slash running through them.

Switch 6: Reserved
