Define CR Code

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 (factory default). Does not insert an extra Line Feed after each
Carriage Return.
•
CR = CR + LF. Inserts an extra Line Feed after each Carriage Return.
Autowrap
This option defines the printer actions when print data is received past the
forms width setting.
•

line feed when data is received past the forms width.
•
With CR. Performs an automatic carriage return (without line feed) when
data is received past the forms width.
•
Disable. Discards any data past the forms width.

Define LF Code

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 can be used in most
installations, but it is required if the host computer does not send Carriage
Returns to the printer.
•
LF = CR + LF (factory default). Adds an extra Carriage Return with each
Line Feed.

LF = LF. Does not add a Carriage Return with a Line Feed.

Printer Select
