This option controls the action of the printer when it receives a Carriage
Return code (hex 0D) from the host computer. If this feature is enabled, each
time the printer receives a carriage return, it inserts an additional Line Feed
code (hex 0A) into the data stream. Do not use this feature if the host
computer sends Line feeds to the printer.

CR = CR

(factory default). Does not insert an extra line feed after each

carriage return.

CR = CR + LF

. Inserts an extra line feed after each carriage return. The

next print position will be print position 1 of the next line.
