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 3 Printing.
With the factory setting,
MACRO 1
is invoked when you first turn the printer on. The Macro
selection changed 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 protocol to
MACRO 1
.
Assign the second protocol to
MACRO 2
. All of the other settings 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 documentation.
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.
For the procedure for changing the
MACRO 1
and
MACRO 2
options, see the previous
sections in this chapter.
