Star Micronics LC24-300 Printer User Manual


 
I
A3 - RAM usage’
The printer’s internal memory can be set as either buffer
memory (ON) – the printer accepts data from the com-
puter faster than it can print it, or download memory
(OFF) - you can invent your own character symbols and
download them using software into the printer.
A4 - Color and zoom
If this switch is ON, both color printing and zooming
(page 40) are enabled. If OFF, you can do neither color
printing nor zoom printing. If you have set a zoom level
and stored it as a macro (page 42), and turn this switch
OFF, the zoom size will be cancelled.
A5 - Auto LF with CR
If A5 is ON, your computer needs to send both a line
feed code and a carriage return code at the end of each
line. If A5 is set to OFF, the printer will automatically
perform a line feed each time it receives a carriage
return. As a result, your software only needs to send a
carriage return at the end of a line.
If your output is double-spaced when it should not
be, you may need to set this setting to ON.
If the lines of your output are being printed on top of
one another, you should set this s~tting to OFF. -
A6 -
Auto sheet feeder
If you have installed the optional automatic sheet feeder
(SF-1ODW),you should turn this switch OFF. Other-
wise, simply leave it ON.
B1 - Graphics direction
When you are printing graphics, you can print bi-direc-
tionally (left-to-right and right-to-left) for speed (ON).
Uni-directional graphics printing (OFF) means that the
print head prints from left-to-right, returns to the left
without printing, and prints from left-to-right again.
This is a little more accurate than bi-directional pnnt-
