Enabling Epson Emulation
To enable emulation of an Epson single-station printer on a single-station SureMark
printer, you must set switch 3 on the main logic card. See Figure 15.
Limitations for Epson Emulation
The following limitations must be considered when using the SureMark printer to
emulate an Epson single-station printer.
v Logos and downloadable characters are supported in emulation mode. However,
because the Epson printer prints at 150 dpi and the SureMark prints at 200 dpi,
the emulated printout will be smaller.
v Emulation of page mode is not supported on the SureMark.
v Epson supports the Select paper sensor to stop printing command. IBM does not
support a low paper sensor.
