| Receive | The input receive buffer can be configured to various sizes. |
| ||
| Buffer | The optimal size is dependent on the application. The options |
| ||
|
| are from 256 to 6144 bytes. To provide tight control of the |
| ||
|
| printer, |
| ||
|
| printer goes busy after each [CR] and stays busy until the |
| ||
|
| buffer is empty. |

| The line to line print registration of the printer is adjustable. |
| |||
| Alignment | This registration is important in graphics and rotated print and |
| ||
|
| is set at the factory. However, if the printer has been serviced, |
| ||
|
| this value may need to be adjusted. The adjustment can be |
| ||
|
| from |
| ||
|
| print an alignment chart along with the adjustment. |

| Impact | To allow the printer to print better on multipart forms, the |
| ||
| Energy | impact energy supplied to the print head can be increased. In |
| ||
|
| high impact mode, the print speed is decreased by about 15 |
| ||
|
| percent. The high impact is only effective in validation mode. |

|
| Form Sense | The amount of time the printer waits after a form is sensed |
| ||
| Wait | and before action is taken is adjustable. This is the form |
| ||
|
| sense wait time. |
|
|
|
|
| It can be adjusted from 0 to 750 milliseconds. |
| 250 ms | |
| Validation | The printer can be configured to return to receipt mode after a |
| ||
| slip or validation command is issued. The |

| Cash Drawer | The amount of time the cash drawer is energized is |
|
| |
| Time | adjustable from 25 to 250 milliseconds. The value will be |
| ||
|
| dependent on the cash drawer being used; however, 150 ms |
| ||
|
| works with most drawers. |

| Reset Inhibit | The reset command can be prevented from being acted on. If |
| ||
|
| Reset Inhibit is set to on, the command will have no effect. |

| The print suppress feature can be off, on, or pass (pass |

| Pass through | suppress command. If print suppress is set to off, the |
|
| |
|
| command will be ignored. If on, the command will be active. |
| ||
|
| If pass is selected, the command and data pass through will |
