Switch 4: Are you going to use the optional Automatic Sheet Feeder (ASF)?

In order to use the optional Automatic Sheet Feeder, move this switch to the OFF position. Otherwise leave it ON.

Switch 5: Do you want to print with Roman font style or H-Gothic font style?

This printer has two font styles: Roman and H-Gothic.

The ON position selects the Roman font style, and the OFF position selects the H-Gothic font style as the power-on default.

Switch 6: Do you want to print quarter sized mode?

This printer has special print mode. If you move this switch to the OFF position, all data received are printed in half-sized both horizontally and vertically. This mode is called as “Quartersized print mode”. If you leave this switch ON, the printer prints with normal print mode.

Switch 7: The action of this switch depends on the mode chosen with switch 1.

If you selected standard mode, do you want italics or graphic characters?

Set this switch OFF to print italics in the standard character set. If you leave this switch to the ON position, in place of italics you will get the graphic characters, international characters, and mathematical symbols of IBM character set #2.

If you selected IBM mode, do you want IBM character set #1 or #2?

ON selects character set #2, which is for computers with an 8-bit interface (the most common kind).

OFF selects character set #1, for computers with a 7-bit interface.

Switches 8 to 10: Do you want an international character set or IBM code page?

International character sets differ in their assignment of 14character codes in the Standard Italic character set. See the character tables at the back of this manual. With these switches you can select one of eight character sets as follows:
