AGM (Alternate Graphics Mode)
. Specifies that the printer
use high-resolution, 24-pin graphics commands. (Used in
IBM X24E mode only.)
Character table
. Selects the set of characters and symbols
that can be printed. The default is the Italic U.S.A. character
table. If you commonly use a language containing accents,
symbols, or other characters not available in the Italic
U.S.A. character table, change to a different character table.
For a list of the character tables, see Appendix B.
Auto line feed
. Specifies that a carriage return character
encountered in the print file be accompanied by a line feed
command. By default, auto line feed is off. If text lines print
on top of one another, turn on auto line feed.
Network interface mode
. If your printer is connected to
a single computer, leave this setting off (the default). If
you’re having trouble printing when the printer is
connected to multiple computers, turn on Network
interface mode.
Loading position
. Determines the top margin by defining
how close to the paper edge the first line can print. The
loading position can be 3 mm (default) or 8.5 mm.
Normally you should use your software to adjust the top
margin of your paper.
Thick paper
. Select Index card (portrait) or Envelope
(default) if you print on these media.
Economy
. When Economy mode is on, the printer uses less
ink by printing fewer dots per character. Use this mode for
rough drafts only. (The default setting is off.)
