User's Guide

T. Margin

Sets the distance from the top of the page to the baseline of the first printable line. The
distance is measured in inches. The smaller the value, the closer the printable line is to the
top.

Text

Sets the page length in lines. For this option, a line is assumed to be 1 pica (1/6 inch). If
you change the Orientation, Page Size, or T. Margin settings, the page length setting
automatically returns to the default for each paper size.

CG Table

Use the character generator (CG) table option to select the graphics character table or the
italics table. The graphics table contains graphic characters for printing lines, corners,
shaded areas, international characters, Greek characters, and mathematical symbols. If
you select Italic, the upper half of the character table is defined as italic characters.

Country

Use this option to select one of the fifteen international symbol sets. See the Font Guide for
samples of the characters in each country’s symbol set.

Auto CR

Specifies whether the printer performs a carriage-return/line-feed (CR-LF) operation
whenever the printing position goes beyond the right margin. If you select Off, the printer
does not print any characters beyond the right margin and does not perform any line
wrapping until it receives a carriage-return character. This function is handled
automatically by most applications.

Auto LF

If you select Off, the printer does not send an automatic line-feed (LF) command with each
carriage-return (CR). If On is selected, a line-feed command is sent with each
carriage-return. Select On if your text lines overlap.

Bit Image

The printer is able to emulate the graphics densities set with the printer commands. If you
select Dark, the bit image density is high, and if you select Light, the bit image density is
low.

If you select BarCode, the printer converts bit images to bar codes by automatically filling in
any vertical gaps between dots. This produces unbroken vertical lines that can be read by
a bar code reader. This mode will reduce the size of the image being printed, and may also
cause some distortion when printing bit image graphics.
