Compatbl. Mode

This option instructs the PGL to behave similarly to older versions of the IGP
with respect to certain commands.
All new users with new applications should select the "None" option. Selecting
this mode insures the printer will behave as described in this manual.
When replacing an older product operating with an existing application,
especially those using the PMODE and SMODE commands, you may need to
select a compatibility mode. In this case, select the printer model number
option that most closely matches the printer being replaced. The Compatibility
Mode options include:
•
None (factory default)
•
MVP
•
L150
•
P3000
•
P6000
•
P9000
Expanded Font
This option defines the type of expanded characters the PGL will select:
•
Scalable (factory default). These expanded characters have rounded
edges.
•
Block. These are block characters compatible with the
IGP-X00 printers.
•
Alt Block 1 / Alt Block 2. Reserved block sets used only for compatibility
purposes.
Scalable Size
•
Normal (factory default). Controls the size of scalable characters to be
either normal size (as set by the user) or adjusted to match the size of
block fonts.
•
Block. Adjusts the size of scalable characters to exactly match its block
font alternative.
