Switch 5: CR Centering Position

Specifies whether the printer's CR centering is long (ON) or short (OFF). When the CR centering position is long (ON), the carriage moves to the center of the platen before the paper is inserted or ejected. When CR centering is short (OFF), the carriage moves to the left side of the platen.

In order to prevent paper feeding problems, set the CR centering position to short (OFF) when narrow (less than 5.6￿) paper is used and set it to long (ON) when wider (more than 5.6￿) paper is used.

BANK E

Switches 1, 2, 3, 4, 5: Code Page/International Character Set

If your EDS settings specify IBM emulation (Bank A, Switch 1 OFF) with either character table (Bank A, Switch 2), or Standard emulation (Bank A, Switch 1 ON) with the graphics character table (Bank A, Switch 2 ON), use the Bank E switches to select the default character code page you want to use.
