the printer is in Epson LQ mode.

DIP switch 12

DIP switch 12
Set this switch ON to enable automatic emulation switching mode. In this mode,
the priter detects whether the codes being sent are BJ-10 mode or Epson LQ
mode. It then selects the printer control mode to match the printer driver selected
in the MS-DOS application.

When DIP switch 12 is OFF, the printer control mode is set by DIP switch 11
(OFF selects BJ-10 mode, ON selects Epson LQ mode).

Automatic emulation mode is applicable for MS-DOS applications only. When
you are using Windows, the BJ-200ex printer driver for Windows selects the
appropriate control mode regardless of the settings of DIP switches 11 and 12.
