Using the Printer
Packet mode
Make sure to select
AUTO
to print from Windows applications
using the printer driver included in the software CD-ROM that
comes with the printer. Turn off this mode if you encounter
connection problems when you are printing from applications
based on other operating systems such as DOS.
Character table
You can select among various character tables.
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.
Font
You can select six fonts in the Default Setting mode. The font
selected here appears under
Others
on the control panel. The
fonts indicated on the control panel cannot be selected in the
Default Setting mode.
Auto CR (carriage return)
This setting is available only in the IBM PPDS emulation mode.
When auto carriage return is on, each line feed (LF) code or ESC
J code is accompanied by a carriage return code. This moves the
print position to the beginning of the next line.
A.G.M. (Alternate Graphic Mode)
This setting is available only in the IBM PPDS emulation mode.
When A.G.M. is on, the printer can use some advanced graphics
commands like those available in the ESC/P2 mode.
