Configuring your software for the printer
Most application software programs let you specify the type of printer you
are using so thatthe software can takefulladvantage of the printer’s features.
Many of these software packages provide an installation or setup program
that presents a list of printers.
This printer ispreset to emulate the Epson printer commands. If you want to
emulate the IBM printer commands, you can select IBM with the Electronic
DIP Switch (EDS) mode.
Choose one of the following (in the order of preference) according to your
selected Emulation mode:
# Standard (Epson) mode
IBM mode
1
Star NX-241511
Proprinter XL24E
2 Star NX-2415
Proprinter XL24
3 Star NB24- 15
4 Epson LQ-106O
5 Epson LQ- 1050
Ifyour software package does notmention printers by name, butasks instead
what features your printer is capable of, the most common questions are:
“Can your printer perform a backspace?” and “Can it do a hardware form
feed?” you should answer “Yes” to both these questions.
Make sure that the Electronic DIP Switch (EDS) is set for the correct printer
emulation, and that you have also selected the appropriate character set.
(Refer to Chapter 5 for detailed information on the EDS mode.)
NOTE: If you are in doubt about the configuration of your application
software, seek expert advice. Your software supplier will probably
be your most qualified reference.
