Data length
Set the data length of the serial interface to 7 bit or 8 bit. See your
computer manual and software documentation for the proper
setting.
Parallel I/F bidirectional mode
The parallel interface bidirectional transfer mode is used when
this feature is turned on. If bidirectional transfer mode is
unnecessary, turn this off.
Packet mode
Select Auto to use the IEEE-1284.4 packet transfer mode. If packet
transfer mode is unnecessary, or if you cannot connect, turn this
off.
Character table
You can select from among 13 to 35 standard character tables,
depending on the country of purchase. See “Electronic” on page
110 for more information on the 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.
Auto CR (carriage return)
This setting is available only in the IBM 2380 Plus (for
LX-300+)/IBM 2381 Plus (for LX-1170) 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.
