Autowrap
This option defines the printer action when print data is received past the
forms width setting.
• With LF+CR (factory default). Performs an automatic carriage return and
line feed when data is received past the forms width, causing the excess
text to print on the next line.
• With CR . Performs an automatic carriage return (without line feed) when
data is received past the forms width.
• Disable . Discards any data past the forms width.
Overstrike
This option enables you to print bold characters.
• Enable (factory default). Turns on bold print. When enabled, overstrike
printing slows down the printer.
• Disable . Turns off bold print.
Define LF Code
• LF = CR + LF (factory default). Forces an automatic carriage return with
each line feed command. The next print position is print position 1 of the
next line.
• LF = LF . Does not perform an automatic carriage return. The next print
position will be the current print position of the next line.
P-Series SFCC
This parameter allows you to select which ASCII codes will function as the
Special Function Control Code (SFCC) command delimiter.
P-Series codes can use hex 00 through hex 7F. Options include the following:
• ESC (hex 1B)
• SOH (hex 01)
• ETX (hex 03)
• CIRCUMFLEX (hex 5E)—also called caret (^)
• TILDE (hex 7E)—(~)
NOTE: SOH, ETX, and ESC are non-printables. The characters (^) and (~)
are printable; however, do not use them as printables in the host data
stream if either is chosen as a delimiter because print errors will
occur.
