Position:

14" Epson Emulation: When set, the printer executes the same commands as an Epson printer in an 80 column format. This parameter enables the emulation on printer power-up (Also see the ^A1^D38 command in section 5.3). To exit this mode, create a status label (see section 2.1.3) and clear (0) this position in this software dip switch. This function is no longer supported.

2Enable 2" Epson Emulation: Same as position 2, but prints in a 40 column format. (Also see the ^A2^D38 command in section 5.3.) This function is no longer supported.

3Blow-hole Stock: Enable this position when using blow-hole or cut-slot stock: Stock that uses a hole instead of a gap to separate labels.

4Auto-size on power-up:When enabled, the printer automatically sizes the label stock when turned on. The printer then uses these header values for all subsequent label formats. See the ^D39 command in section 5.3 for more information on auto-sizing.
