Description

 

 

FONT

Set the font for the printer to use in the absence of any font control

 

instructions from your software.

 

 

PITCH

Set the pitch to determine the horizontal spacing of the printed characters.

LINE SPACING

Set the vertical spacing of the printed characters. You can set it to either 6

 

LPI (the default setting) or 8 LPI.

FORM LENGTH

Set the length of your printer paper, for both cut sheets and continuous-feed

 

paper.

PAGE SKIP

Select (ON) or cancel (OFF, the default) a bottom margin of one inch.

 

 

COMPRESS PRT

Select compressed print mode or normal print mode.

 

 

TEXT DIR

Set unidirectional or bi-directional printing for text. Bi-directional (the default)

 

is faster because the print head prints in both directions. Unidirectional is

 

slower but produces better printing quality.

GRAPHIC DIR

Set unidirectional or bi-directional printing for graphics. It is set to UNI-DIR

 

by default for better quality.

SLASH ZERO

Select or cancel the printing of a slash (/) through zero to distinguish them

 

from the letter O.

CHARACTER SET

Select character set into Italic Character Table or Graphic Character Table.

 

 

INTL CHAR SET

Select among international character sets.

 

 

CODE PAGE

Select a code page

QUIET MODE

Select the printer into quiet mode. The acoustic noise is lower but the

 

printing speed is reduced by half.

 

 

AUTO LF

Select (ON) or cancel (OFF) the automatic advance of the paper by one line

 

after every carriage return command.

 

 

AUTO TEAR OFF

Enable or disable AUTO TEAR OFF function. The feed delay for the tear-off

 

advance can be set.

LOADING

This determines the action of the printer while the single sheet paper is front

 

feeding.

 

PUSH KEY disables automatic loading allowing loading only by pressing the

 

LF/FF key. The other options allow automatic feeding after the stated delay

 

time.

SKEW DETECTION

Enable or disable the skew detection for front feeding

SKEW LEVEL

Sets the skew sensor sensitivity. 001 is the most critical while 010 is the

 

least. If a skew error is detected the single sheet will be automatically

 

ejected.
