This option determines the basic print image orientation.

NOTE: Print Direction will not change the orientation of any print test patterns

in the DIAGNOSTIC menu.

Print Direction has two options:

form will come out of the printer first. Conversely, when you select Foot First,
the bottom-of-form will come out first.
