DIP switch 8

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 (LF + CR).

DIP switch 9

Set this switch ON to enable Alternate Graphics Mode (AGM). In this mode, the printer accepts high-resolution, 24-dot, all-points-addressable (APA) graphics commands similar to those used with conventional 24-pin printers.

DIP switch 10

When this switch is OFF, the printer allocates the entire buffer space (62 KB) to the input buffer. When you are using downloaded fonts, change this switch to ON; the printer will allocate 41 KB of buffer space for downloaded fonts.

DIP switch 11

When this switch is OFF, the printer is in BJ-10 mode. When this switch is ON, the printer is in Epson LQ mode.

DIP switch 12

Set this switch ON to enable automatic emulation switching mode. In this mode, the priter detects whether the codes being sent are BJ-10 mode or Epson LQ mode. It then selects the printer control mode to match the printer driver selected in the MS-DOS application.

When DIP switch 12 is OFF, the printer control mode is set by DIP switch 11 (OFF selects BJ-10 mode, ON selects Epson LQ mode).

Automatic emulation mode is applicable for MS-DOS applications only. When you are using Windows, the BJ-200ex printer driver for Windows selects the appropriate control mode regardless of the settings of DIP switches 11 and 12.
