Chapter 4 IGP/PGL Emulation

Define CR Code (Carriage Return)

This parameter forces the printer to insert an automatic Line Feed code into the data stream whenever a Carriage Return code occurs. This is to be used only if the host computer does not send Line Feeds to the printer.

•CR = CR. Does not perform a line feed. The next print position will be print position 1 of the current line.

•CR = CR + LF. Performs an automatic line feed. The next print position will be print position 1 of the next line.

Define LF Code (Line Feed)

This parameter forces the printer to insert an automatic Carriage Return code into the data stream whenever a Line Feed code occurs. This can be used in most installations, but it is required if the host computer does not send Carriage Returns to the printer.

•LF = LF. Does not perform an automatic carriage return. The next print position will be the current print position of the next line.

•LF = CR + LF. Performs an automatic carriage return. The next print position will be print position 1 of the next line.

Autowrap

This parameter determines if text will wrap to the next line when the line of text exceeds the right margin.

•Disable. Truncates the text beyond the right margin until a CR or CR + LF is received.

•Enable. Automatically inserts a CR + LF after a full print line.

Select SFCC

You can specify which decimal code (1-255) will be used as the Special Function Control Code (SFCC). The factory default setting is 126. The SFCC denotes that the following data is an IGP/PGL command.

PI Slew Range

You can specify how many lines the paper will feed.

•15. A paper slew of 1-15 will move 1-15 lines. A paper slew of 0 will move 1 line.

•16. A paper slew of 0-15 will move 1-16 lines.
