Yes. An automatic carriage return and line feed is performed when data is received past the forms
width setting.
CR
This option controls the action of the printer when it receives a Carriage Return code (hex 0D) from the
host computer. If this feature is enabled, each time the printer receives a Carriage Return, it inserts an
additional Line Feed code (hex 0A) into the data stream. Do not use this feature if the host computer
sends line feeds to the printer.
•
= CR (factory default). Does not insert an extra line feed after each carriage return.
•
= CR + LF. If this feature is enabled, each time the printer receives a Carriage Return, it inserts an
additional Line Feed code (hex 0A) into the data stream. (Do not use this feature if the host computer
sends Line Feeds to the printer with each Carriage Return.)
LF
This parameter forces the printer to insert an automatic Carriage Return code into the data stream
whenever a Line Feed code occurs. This can be used in most installations, but it is required if the host
computer does not send carriage returns to the printer.
•
= LF (factory default). Does not perform an automatic carriage return. The next print position will be
the current print position of the next line.
