Print Language
Print language specifies the set of print languages used by the printer. Refer
to the previous page for print language menus.
Alternate Character Set
The alternate character set code can be used to mix primary and alternate
characters on a single line. The main character set is automatically selected
when a line terminator code is received.
PC Character Set 2 (the default). Selects 80-9F hex in the character as
printable.
PC Character Set 1. Selects 80-9F hex in the character as control codes.
Define CR Code (Carriage Return)
This parameter forces the printer to insert an automatic Line Feed code into
the data stream whenever a Carriage Return code occurs. This is to be used
only if the host computer does not send Line Feeds to the printer.
CR = CR (the default). Does NOT perform a line feed. The next print
position will be print position 1 of the current line.
CR = CR + LF. Performs an automatic line feed. The next print position
will be print position 1 of the next line.
Auto LF
This parameter determines if text will wrap to the next line when the line of
text exceeds the right margin.
Enable (the default). Automatically inserts a CR + LF after a full print line.
Disable. Truncates the text beyond the right margin until a CR or CR + LF
is received.
Define LF Code (Line Feed)
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 = LF (the default). Does not perform an automatic carriage return. The
next print position will be the current print position of the next line.
LF = CR + LF. Performs an automatic carriage return. The next print
position will be print position 1 of the next line.
FF Valid At TOF
Enable (the default). Performs a form feed when the host sends a Form
Feed command and the printer is at the top of form.
Disable. Will not perform a form feed when the host sends a Form Feed
command and the printer is at the top of form.
