FUNCTION Settings

The FUNCTION settings control various printer functions, such as the page length and character set you want to use. The printer functions defined by the FUNCTION settings are determined by the printer control mode. The printer has three control modes:

❏BJ mode, which emulates the IBM Proprinter X24E

❏Epson LQ mode, which emulates the Epson LQ printers

❏Canon Extended mode, which is used in the Canon Windows driver and with some MS-DOS applications

NIn Canon Extended mode, the printer overrides the FUNCTION settings. Thus, when you are printing through the Windows environment, you can ignore the information regarding FUNCTION and default settings.
