Configuring Ithaca OPOS Drivers

To configure the OPOS drivers, either run the "Ithaca OPOS Setup" in the control panel or run the configuration via
the "Start" menu, "Programs", "Ithaca OPOS", "Ithaca OPOS Setup". You must choose the communications port
(and the port setting in the case of a serial port). At the OPOS printer configuration, you can set the following:

Printer driver

Choose the printer that you are using. "SeriesAutoDetect" can automatically detect which printer is connected. This
auto detection will allow switching of Ithaca series printers without changing host system settings.
Rename:
This will allow you to rename the OPOS device name. Some applications look for a specific name for the device to
use. This renaming will accommodate an application of this type.
Remove:
This will allow you to remove an OPOS device from the system.
Set as Only:
This will allow you to set this device as the only device of this type (printer). Some applications look for the first
device name for the device to use. To ensure that a device is the first one, use this setup feature. Caution should be
exercised when using this setup feature, this "Set as Only" will remove all other OPOS devices of this type (printer).
Note:
An entry may be first alphabetically, but not first to be enumerated by the operating system.

Printing

Default Characters Per Line:
This is the default number of character per print line. The number of characters per line is typically set by the
application. If the application does not set the number of characters per line, this default will be used.
Line Feed Scale Factor:
This controls the base/default line height/spacing. Increase this value for a larger line spacing.
Fast Bitmap Printing:
Set to have bitmaps print in the fastest mode possible (while xxxLetterQuality is false). If xxxLetterQuality is set to
true, the "Fast Bitmap Printing" option is overridden and bitmaps are printed in high quality mode. If "Fast Bitmap
Printing" is off and xxxLetterQuality is set to false, bitmaps are printed in a medium quality mode.
Double High = Double Line Feed:
If set, when a line feed is encountered after double high print is requested, a double line feed will be done.
Print Red as Bold:
If set, a request for alternate color print (red) will be printed as bold.
Truncate Trailing Spaces:
If set, spaces on the end of a line of text will be removed. This truncation can be used to prevent unwanted line
wrapping.
