Received DEL

Observe

(factory default). A DEL code received from the host is handled

as a Delete command.

Ignore

. A DEL code received from the host is ignored.

Private Mode

Determines the default type of character set (Set 1 or Set 2). This can also be
set by ESC sequences ESC [>5h and ESC [>5l. Refer to these descriptions in
the

ANSI Programmer's Reference Manual

for further details.

Pos. on BC/OvrSz

Set to top

(factory default). The paper is fed back to the top of barcodes

or oversized characters after they are printed. This allows printing on the
same line.

Set to bottom

. The printer will continue printing without backing up.

BC Check Digit

By host

(factory default). The host calculates the barcode check digit and

sends it along with the barcode. The check digit is not verified by the
printer but printed as it was received.

By printer

. The barcode is sent without the check digit, and the printer

calculates and adds it in.

Barcode Darkmode

Enable

(factory default). The barcodes are printed at a higher resolution.

Disable

. The barcodes are printed at lower resolution but at a higher

speed.

PUM Default

This is the Unit of Measure (UOM) as it is used within the ANSI emulation.
Coordinates received in ESC sequences can be sent in two UOMs:

Decipoints

(factory default). A unit of 1/720 inch

Lines or columns

. Uses the current LPI and CPI values.

The UOM used is determined by this configuration setting.

Truncate PI Slew

Truncate at TOF

(factory default). The slew is terminated when the next

Top-of-Form is reached. (This function applies to the ANSI EVFU only.)

Disable

. PI slews will be completed independent of their length.
