Select LPI
(From page 184, page 190, page 193, page 195, page 197, page 199.) This
is the number of lines to be printed per inch. For example, at 6 lpi there is
1/6 inch from the top of one print line to the top of the next print line.
The options are 6.0, 8.0, and 10.3 LPI.
The factory default is 6.0 LPI.
Select SFCC (PGL)
(From page 184.) You can specify which decimal code (1-255) will be used as
the Special Function Control Code (SFCC). The SFCC denotes that the
following data is a PGL command.
The range is 1-255, and the factory default is 126.
Select SFCC (P-Series)
(From page 191.) This P-Series feature allows you to select an ASCII code
which defines the Special Function Control Code (SFCC) command code
value. The factory default value is hex 01, but the P-Series options allow
selection of any value ranging from hex 00 through hex 7F. This powerful
feature permits the SFCC code to be assigned a value compatible with the
application environment where the P-Series jobs originate. The most
commonly used values include the following:
•
SOH (01 hex)
•
ESC (1B hex)
•
ETX (03 hex)
•
Circumflex (5e hex) - also called caret (^)
•
Tilde (7F hex) - (~)
NOTE: Non-Printable ASCII code values range from hex 00 through hex 1F
The range is 0-7F, and the factory default is 1.
Select SO Char
(From page 185, page 188.) Allows you to specify a decimal code from 0
through 255 to be used in place of SO (Shift Out) as the control code which
allows access for the alternate set of control function characters. See the
description of the Code 128 barcodes in the PGL Programmer's Reference
Manual for details.
The range is 0-255, and the factory default is 14.
238
and also include hex 7F. Printable ASCII code values range from hex
20 through hex 7E. If a printable code value is chosen to define the
SFCC code value, you must ensure that the printer data stream will
not contain the same code value in printable text. Otherwise text
containing the character for the SFCC control code value may be
incorrectly processed as an SFCC command causing print errors.
