Define CR Code

This 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. Does not insert an extra Line Feed after each Carriage Return.

CR = CR + LF. Inserts an extra Line Feed after each Carriage Return.
The next print position will be print position 1 of the next line.

Auto LF

This option defines the printer action when print data is received past the
forms width setting.

Disable. Discards any data past the forms width.

Enable. Performs an automatic carriage return and line feed when data is
received past the forms width.

Overstrike

This option enables you to print bold characters.

Enable. Turns on bold print. When enabled, overstrike printing slows
down the printer.

Disable. Turns off bold print.

Define LF Code

LF = CR + LF. Forces an automatic carriage return with each line feed
command. The next print position is print position 1 of the next line.

LF = LF. Does not perform an automatic carriage return. The next print
position will be the current print position of the next line.
