Ignore Character

Ignore Mode
This parameter instructs the IGP to ignore the character selected under the
Select Character menu.
Disable. The default. The IGP does not ignore any characters.
Enable. The IGP ignores the characters selected under the Selected
Character menu.
Select Character
This instructs the IGP which character to ignore from the host. Valid
selections are from 0–255. The default is 0.

IGP100 Compatibility

This option instructs the IGP to behave similarly to the 100 version of the
IGP with respect to certain commands.
All new users with new applications should select the "Disable" option.
Selecting this mode insures the printer will behave as described in this
manual. The other version is required to emulate the behavior of IGP100
printers that may be inconsistent with the documented PGL functionality.
When replacing an older product operating with an existing application,
especially those using the PMODE and SMODE commands, the IGP100
mode may need to be selected.
Disable. The IGP does not emulate the IGP–100 mode.
Enable. The default. The IGP emulates the IGP–100 version.
Expanded Font
This option defines the type of expanded character the IGP/PGL will select.
The following choices are:
Scalable: These expanded characters have rounded edges.
Block: The default. These are block characters compatible with the
IGP–X00 printers.
Alt Block 1: This is a customized block character set that is only
available for the non–overlay multinational group of character sets.
