IBM Alternate graphic mode (AGM) (Valid in IBM mode)
This function enables the IBM emulation to work similar to the Epson emulation in high
density graphics. The table below describes the differences in their related control codes.
Carriage return (CR)
A carriage return (ASCII code 0Dh or 13) causes data in the buffer to be printed and the
carriage to be moved to the left most print position at the same line. The following option can
be selected when issuing a carriage return. Refer to the specification of your application for
correct selection.
Note: Autofeed is effective for the system using parallel interface with AUTO FEED signal to
control the the carriage return with or without a line feed. The autofeed signal must be low
when the printer is initialized in order to add a line feed to every CR code.
Line feed (LF)
This function selects whether to execute the carriage return operation when receiving the line
feed command (LF code).
