Host Override

Determines whether the printer accepts certain commands sent by the host,
or continues to use the current operator panel settings.

Disable

(factory default). Allows these host commands to override

operator panel settings: line length, forms length, lines per inch (LPI),
characters per inch (CPI), print quality, and text orientation. Note the
information appearing on the message display may not match the data
stream setting. No values will change upon initial selection of the disable
option.

Enable

. The operator panel settings override the host commands.

Format Control

Enables the printer to reflect the same spacing as CTPC model printers after
absolute and relative move commands are executed.

Disable

(factory default). Reflects distance, generated by the VGL

feature, PGL feature, and Hex Transparent control code sequence, in the
new position (after horizontal and vertical tabs are executed).

Enable

.
