Control Code 06

Control Code 06 defines the function of ASCII code hex 06 (ACK). You can
select an alternate line spacing of 6, 8, or 10.3 LPI.

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

(default). 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

The Auto LF option defines the printer action when print data is received past
the forms width setting.

Enable

when data is received past the forms width.

Disable

Overstrike

slows down the printer.

line feed command is received. The next print position will be the current
print position of the next line.

command received. The next print position is print position 1 of the next
