Graphic Chek Code

GRAPHIC CHEK CODE specifies the replacement character to print in place of

any unprintable character that is received from the host. The character becomes

the printer default when:

The printer is powered off and then powered on.

An SGEA command specifies to use the operator panel default.

The “GRAPHIC CHEK ERR” option is disabled.

LAC Option

The LAC OPTION allows the host system to load alternate character images into

the printer. This may be used for designing graphics, bar codes, and charts, or for

printing in foreign languages.

ENABLE prints the LAC character as defined.

DISABLE ignores the LAC definition from the host and prints from the

currently selected character set.

Set Text Orientn

SET TEXT ORIENTN specifies the direction in which characters are printed on

the page. This allows the printer to print languages that are printed right to left

instead of left to right.

CONTROL BY HOST

LEFT TO RIGHT

RIGHT TO LEFT

Host Override

HOST OVERRIDE determines whether the printer accepts certain commands

sent by the host, or continues to use the current operator panel settings. The

following host commands are ignored when HOST OVERRIDE is enabled: line

length, forms length, lines per inch (LPI), characters per inch (CPI), print quality,

and text orientation (i.e. left to right). When HOST OVERRIDE is enabled, these

settings retain their operator panel settings.
