Printer Emulation Configuration Menu
Epson Print Language
Epson print language specifies the set of print languages used by the printer.
Refer to the previous page for print language menus.
Define CR Code (Carriage Return)
The Define CR Code 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 = CR. (the default.) Does not insert an extra line feed after each
carriage return.
•
CR = CR + LF. Inserts an extra line feed after each carriage return.
Auto LF
This option defines the printer actions when print data is received past the
forms width setting.
•
Enable. (the default.) Performs an automatic carriage return and line feed
when data is received past the forms width.
•
Disable. Discards any data past the forms width.
Define LF Code (Line Feed)
The Define LF Code option controls the action of the printer when it receives a
Line Feed code (hex 0A) from the host computer. If this feature is enabled,
each time the printer receives a Line Feed, it inserts an additional Carriage
Return code (hex 0D) into the data stream. This feature is required if the host
computer does not send carriage returns to the printer.
•
LF = LF. (the default). Does not add a carriage return with a line feed.
•
LF = CR + LF. Adds an extra carriage return with each line feed.
Printer Select
•
Disable. (the default.) Ignores the ASCII DC1 and DC3 control codes.
•
Enable. Disables the printer when a DC1 control code is received, and
enables the printer when a DC3 control code is received.
20 CPI Condensed
Compressed print characters are narrower than the normal character set.
This is helpful for applications where you need to print the maximum amount
of information on a page.
•
Enable. (the default.) Prints about 60 percent of the width of normal
characters when compressed print is chosen by the host computer. For
example, a 12 CPI Draft font will compress to 20 CPI.
•
Disable. Does not compress print widths, even if condensed print is
chosen by the host.
