Software
When you select ESC/P, the printer operates in the EPSON ESC/
P mode. When you select IBM 2380 Plus , the printer emulates an
IBM printer.
Character table
You can select among 13 standard character tables as well as
tables for 21 other countries. See Appendix C for character
samples.
International character set for Italic table
You can select among several international character sets for the
Italic character table. Each character set contains eight characters
that vary depending on the country or language, so you can
customize the Italic table to suit your printing needs. See
Appendix C for character samples.
0 slash
The zero character has a slash ( ) when this feature is on. It has
no slash (0) when this feature is off. The slash allows you to easily
distinguish between the uppercase letter “O” and a zero.
Input buffer
The input buffer stores up to 64KB of data sent from your
computer, freeing your computer for other tasks while the printer
prints. When the buffer is
Off , the buffer cannot store data, so the
computer must wait for the printer to print each character before
it sends the next character.
Buzzer (beeper)
The printer beeps when an error occurs. (See page 7-2 for more
information on printer errors.) If you do not want the printer to
beep when an error occurs, turn this setting off.
