TI 855 Emulation

The TI 855 emulation submenu contains the processing mode (WP/DP)
parameter and the automatic line feed parameter, both of which can
be set to match the requirements of your computer. The following
paragraphs describe these parameters.

Processing Mode

The Tl 855 emulation mode lets you choose either of the following
processing modes.

q DP mode — uses commands (described in Chapter 6) similar to

those used by a dot-matrix-type printer.

q WP mode — uses commands (described in Chapter 5) similar to

those used by a daisy-wheel printer.

The default setting for the processing mode parameter is DP.

Automatic Line Feed

Some software programs send both a CR command and an LF command
at the end of each print line, while others send only a CR command.
For software that sends only a CR command at the end of each print
line, the printer needs to perform an LF operation automatically. The
default setting for the automatic LF parameter is NO.

IBM Proprinter XL and Epson FX Emulations

The IBM Proprinter XL and Epson FX emulation submenus contain
the same following parameters.

Automatic Line Feed

This parameter is identical to the automatic LF parameter described
for the TI 855 emulation mode. The default setting is NO.
