Data Bit 8

Enable

(default). Allows access to the extended ASCII character set.

Disable

. The printer interprets bit 8 of each incoming data character as a

zero, regardless of its actual setting.

PI Ignored

The PI (Paper Instruction) signal is used to control vertical paper motion.

Enable

(default). Causes the printer to interpret the eight data lines as

DVFU commands when the PI signal is true.

Disable

. Ignores the PI signal and treats the data as characters or control

codes.

Data Polarity

The Data Polarity parameter must be set to match the data polarity of your
host computer.

Standard

(default). Does not expect the host computer to invert the data.

Inverted

. Expects the data received on the data lines from the host

computer to be inverted. Ones become zeros, and zeros become ones.
