Changing Macro 1 and Macro 2 Options
The MACRO 1 and MACRO 2 functions allow you to use two sets of different print
options according to your application software. You can easily switch between
MACRO 1 and MACRO 2 in Normal mode as described in Chapter 4, “Printing”.
With the factory setting, MACRO 1 is invoked when you first turn on the printer. The
Macro selection change is permanently retained in the printer.
Select the same protocol on the printer as is selected in your software. If the protocols
are not the same, the printer will not work correctly with your software. If you plan
to use two different protocols on a regular basis, assign the most frequently used pro-
tocol to MACRO 1. Assign the second protocol to MACRO 2. All of the other set-
tings available for MACRO 1 and MACRO 2 are optional. Some of the options and
values will vary with the protocol.
To determine which features your software supports, refer to your software docu-
mentation.
The following table describes the MACRO 1 and MACRO 2 options and values.
Both functions offer the same options and values. The options in the table are listed
in the order in which they are printed. Not all options are defined for all protocols,
and some values vary with the protocol.
