High speed draft

When you choose On, the printer prints up to 480 cps (characters per second) at 10 cpi (characters per inch). When you choose Off, the printer prints up to 360 cps at 10 cpi.

Input buffer

When you turn on this setting, the printer’s input buffer stores up to 64KB of data sent from your computer, freeing up your computer for other tasks while the printer prints. When you select Off, the buffer cannot store data, so the computer must wait for the printer to print each character before it sends the next character.

Buzzer (beeper)

When you turn on this setting, the printer beeps when an error occurs. See page 7-2 for more information on printer errors. If you do not want the printer to beep when an error occurs, select Off.

Auto CR (carriage return)

This setting is available only in IBM 2391 Plus emulation mode. When you select On, each line feed (LF) code or ESC J code received by the printer is accompanied by a carriage return code. This moves the print position to the beginning of the next line. If the printer adds an extra line after every carriage return, select Off.

A.G.M. (Alternate Graphic Mode)

When A.G.M. is on, the printer can use some advanced graphics commands like those available in ESC/P2 mode. When you select IBM 2391 mode, this setting is available. The default setting is off.

Font

You can select 6 fonts in default-setting mode. The following fonts are indicated on the control panel and can’t be selected by default settings: Draft, Roman, Sans Serif, Courier, Prestige, and Script.
