Print direction
You can select auto print direction (
Auto
), bidirectional printing
(
Bi-D
), or unidirectional printing (
Uni-D
). Printing is normally
bidirectional for faster printing; however, unidirectional printing
allows for precise vertical printing alignment, which is useful for
printing graphics.
When set to
Auto
, the printer analyzes the data and uses
unidirectional printing only for any lines which require vertical
printing alignment.
Software
When you select
ESC/P2
, the printer operates in the EPSON
ESC/P2 mode. When you select
IBM 2390 Plus
, the printer
emulates an IBM printer.
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

On
, the printer prints up to 413 cps (characters
per second) at 10 cpi (characters per inch). When you choose
Off
,
the printer prints up to 310 cps at 10 cpi.
