WIDE PAGE: When this feature is ON, you can print up to 80 characters at 10 cpi across an A4 page. When it is OFF, you can print up to 77 characters at 10 cpi. The setting is only valid when PAGE SIZE is at A4. If you change the WIDE PAGE set - ting when another size is selected, L-MARGIN automatically defaults to 0 and R-MARGIN and TEXT LINES return to the default setting for the currently selected paper size.

B-IMAGE:With B-IMAGE set to DARK or LIGHT, your printer can correctly emulate the graphics densities set with the printer commands. When you select DARK, the bit image density is high. When you select LIGHT, the bit image density is low. Available Options: DARK, LIGHT, BCODE

The BCODE setting converts bar codes to bit images by automatically filling in any vertical gaps between dots. This produces unbroken vertical lines that can be scanned by a bar code reader.

Note: This mode reduces the size of the image being printed and may cause some distortion when printing bit image graphics.
