Emulation Mode. IBM PPR , IBMAGM, or Epson LQ (factory default). Selects the printer command set you want your printer to use: IBM X24e or XL24e Proprinter, IBM X24e or XL24e Alternate Graphics Mode (AGM), or Epson LQ 850/ 1050.

Form Tear-Off.Off (factory default), 500 ms, 1 sec, or 2 sec. Form Tear-Off advances the paper to the perforation so that you can tear off a sheet of continuous-forms pa- per. You can turn this feature off, or you can select a time interval for the printer to wait before advancing the paper.

Graphics. Bi-directional (factory default) or Uni-directional. Bi-directional graphics print faster than uni-directional graphics, but uni-directional graphics have better print registration. Bi-directional graphics printing can be optimized by adjusting the Print Registration setting in the Menu.

Graphics Speed. Low (factory default) or High. Choose High speed for faster printing when optimum print quality is not an issue.

I-Prime.Buffer Print (factory default), Buffer Clear, or Invalid. Determines how the printer will react to the I-Prime signal from your software. With the factory default engaged, when the printer receives the I-Prime signal, it will print out the contents of the buffer before resetting. Change the setting to Buffer Clear if you wish the printer to dump the contents of its buffer immediately upon receiving the I-Prime signal. Change to Invalid if you want the printer to ignore your software’s I-Prime signal. This will permit you to enter settings through the printer’s control panel which will not be automatically overridden by the software’s settings when the I-Prime signal is sent.

Language Set. American (factory default), French, German, British, Danish I, Swed- ish, Italian, Spanish I, Japanese, Norwegian, Danish II, Spanish II, Latin American, French Canadian, Dutch, or Publisher. Replaces certain symbols with special characters used in the respective foreign languages.

Line Spacing. 6 lpi (factory default) or 8 lpi. Choose 8 lines per inch for tighter line spacing, to get more lines per page.

Operator Panel Function. Full Operation (factory default) or Limited Operation. Change to Limited Operation to deactivate the PRINT QUARITY and CHARACTER PITCH buttons on the control panel. Then you can control these features only through your software. This can be useful when several people are using the printer and you don’t want its settings changed.
