Auto LF

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

Disable

(default). Discards any data past the forms width.

Enable

. Performs an automatic carriage return and line feed when data is

received past the forms width, causing the excess text to print on the next
line.

Overstrike

This option enables you to print bold characters.

Enable

(disable). Turns on bold print. When enabled, overstrike printing

slows down the printer.

Disable

. Turns off bold print.

Define LF Code

LF = CR + LF

(default). 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.

P-Series SFCC

This parameter allows you to select which ASCII codes will function as the
Special Function Control Code (SFCC) command delimiter.

P-Series codes can use hex 00 through hex 7F. Options include the following:

ESC (hex 1B)

SOH (hex 01)

ETX (hex 03)

CIRCUMFLEX (hex 5E)—also called caret (^)

TILDE (hex 7E)—(~)

NOTE:

SOH, ETX, and ESC are non-printables. The characters (^) and (~)
are printable; however, do not use them as printables in the host data
stream if either is chosen as a delimiter because print errors will
occur.
