IGP Feature (PGL)
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.
Auto LF
This parameter determines if text will wrap to the next line when the line of
text exceeds the right margin.
Disable. (the default.) Truncates the text beyond the right margin until a
CR or CR + LF is received.
Enable. Automatically inserts a CR + LF after a full print line.
Select SFCC
You can specify which hex code (1-FF) will be used as the Special Function
Control Character (SFCC). The factory default setting is 7E. The SFCC
denotes that the following data is an IGP command.
PI Slew Range
You can specify how many lines the paper will feed.
16. (the default.) A paper slew of 0-15 will move 1-16 lines.
15. A paper slew of 1-15 will move 1-15 lines. A paper slew of 0 will move
1 line.
CR Edit
This parameter determines if a carriage return will be followed by a line feed.
Disable. (the default.) The printer ignores all carriage returns that are not
followed by line feeds.
Enable. The printer processes all carriage returns, even for those that are
not followed by line feeds.
