DIP switch 1

Use this switch to change the horizontal print position according to the size of your paper. If you are using letter-size paper or envelopes, set this switch OFF; the left margin will be 0.25 inch (6.4 mm) and the maximum print width will be 10.5 inches. If you are using A4-size paper, set this switch ON; the left margin will be 0.13 inch (3.4 mm) and the maximum print width will be 11.4 inches.

DIP switch 2

If you are using a software application that assumes 66 lines will fit on each page, set this switch to ON. The printer will reduce the line spacing by a factor of 14/15 which is from 63 lines per page to 66 lines per page if line spacing is set to 6 lines per inch (lpi).

DIP switch 3

Use this switch to turn on reduction mode. In this mode, the printer reduces characters and graphics to two-thirds of their normal size. When the printer is in envelope mode, reduction mode is disabled.

DIP switch 4

If you are using letter-size paper, set this switch OFF; this sets the page length to 11 inches. If you are using A4-size paper, set this switch On; this sets the page length to 12 inches.

DIP switch 5

When this switch is OFF, the printer uses Character Set 1. When this switch is ON, the printer uses Character Set 2. See Appendix C for information on the character sets.

DIP switch 6

When this switch is OFF, the printer performs a normal line feed. Set this to On if you want the printer to perform a carriage return after each line feed.
