Epson FX Emulation

Auto LF

This option defines the printer actions when print data is received past the forms width setting.

Enable. Performs an automatic carriage return and line feed when data is received past the forms width.

Disable. Discards any data past the forms width.

Define LF Code

The Define LF Code option controls the action of the printer when it receives a Line Feed code (hex 0A) from the host computer. If this feature is enabled, each time the printer receives a Line Feed, it inserts an additional Carriage Return code (hex 0D) into the data stream. This feature is required if the host computer does not send Carriage Returns to the printer.

LF = LF. Does not add a Carriage Return with a Line Feed.

LF = CR + LF. Adds an extra Carriage Return with each Line Feed.

Printer Select

Disable. Ignores the ASCII DC1 and DC3 control codes.

Enable. Disables the printer when a DC1 control code is received, and enables the printer when a DC3 control code is received.

Character Set

This parameter selects a character set for the Epson emulation. Note that when OCR-A or OCR-B is selected as the print language, the Font Attribute Typeface option under the LinePrinter Plus menu (παγε 79) is changed to OCR-A or OCR-B, respectively. To use one of these sets, choose the desired character set and press ENTER. ASCII (USA) is the default.

20 CPI Condensed

Compressed print characters are narrower than the normal character set. This is helpful for applications where you need to print the maximum amount of information on a page.

Enable. Prints about 60 percent of the width of normal characters when compressed print is chosen by the host computer. For example, a 12 CPI Draft font will compress to 20 CPI.

Disable. Does not compress print widths, even if condensed print is chosen by the host.

Alternate Set 80-9F

Control Code. Interprets data in the range of hex 80 through hex 9F as a control code.

Printable. Prints data in the range of hex 80 through hex 9F.
