Control Code 06

This option will select alternate line spacing. When the printer receives a hex
06 command, the line spacing will change to spacing specified in this option
for the current line only.
8.0 LPI (the default)
10.3 LPI
6.0 LPI

Define CR Code

The DEFINE CR CODE (Define Carriage Return Code) option controls the
action of the printer when it receives a Carriage Return code (ØD hex) from
the host computer. If this feature is enabled, each time the printer receives a
Carriage Return, it inserts an additional Line Feed code (ØA hex) 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. The
next print position will be print position 1 of the next line.

Auto LF

The AUTO LF (Auto Line Feed) 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.

Overstrike

The OVERSTRIKE option determines the action required when a line is
printed over a previous line because a carriage return was received without a
line feed.
ENABLE (the default) prints the second line on top of the first line.
DISABLE replaces the characters from the first line with the second line.
