Changing And Saving Parameter Settings

You can change a parameter setting, such as line spacing or forms length, by pressing keys on the control panel or by sending emulation control codes in the host data stream.

When you change a parameter, it is active as long as the printer is on. This is true whether you used the control panel or sent a control code from the host.

If you use the control panel, you can save the parameters as a customized configuration. A configuration consists of a group of parameters. A saved configuration will not be lost if you turn off the printer.

You can change a parameter with a control code, but to save the parameter setting you must use the control panel.

Control codes override control panel parameters. For example, if you set the line spacing to 6 lpi with the control panel, and application software later changes this to 8 lpi with a control code, the control code setting overrides the control panel setting.

The 8 lpi parameter is effective as long as the printer is on. If you turn off the printer, the 8 lpi parameter will be erased. To save the parameter, you must use the control panel and save it as a configuration.

You can save up to eight configurations.

Changing parameters is described on page 48, and saving configurations is described on page 50.
