Switch l-8:
Do you want an automatic line feed?
If you leave this switch at the ON position, a separate line-feed code is re-
quired to obtain a line feed. If you move this switch to the OFF position,
the printer performs both a carriage return and line feed each time it receives
a carriage-return
code.
Most computer systems send a line feed code, or both a carriage return and
line feed, at the end of each line, so this switch should be left ON.
If you get double line spacing when you expect single spacing, or if lines
overprint each other, try changing the setting of this switch.
Switch 2-1:
Does your software download new characters to the printer?
To download characters this switch must be OFF. The printer then uses its
RAM memory for storing character patterns and provides only a one-line
print buffer. If you leave this switch ON the printer uses its RAM memory
as an input buffer, allowing the computer to send data faster than the printer
prints.
Switches 2-2 to 2-4:
Do you want an international
character set?
International
character sets differ in their assignment of 14 character codes.
See the character tables in Appendix D. With the DIP switches you can
select one of eight character sets as 'follows:

as shown next.
