When auto tear-off is off and you are using continuous paper
with the front or rear push tractor, you need to move the
perforation to the tear-off position manually by pressing the
Tear Off/Bin button. See “Advancing the Paper to the Tear-Off
Edge” in Chapter 3 for more information.
Auto line feed
When auto line feed is on, the printer accompanies each
carriage return (CR) code received with a line feed (LF) code.
Print direction
You can select auto print direction, bidirectional printing
(Bi-D), or unidirectional printing (Uni-D). Printing is normally
bidirectional; however, unidirectional printing allows for
precise vertical printing alignment.
I/F (interface) mode
The printer has space for one optional interface in addition to
its built-in parallel interface. You can choose automatic,
parallel, or optional for the interface mode. When you select
auto, the printer automatically selects the interface that is
receiving data, and uses that interface until the end of the print
job. The auto setting allows you to share the printer among
multiple computers without changing the interface mode.
If only one computer is connected to the printer, you can select
the parallel or optional interface mode, depending on which
interface your computer uses.
Auto I/F (interface) wait time
When the printer is in the auto interface mode and it receives
no data from the currently selected interface for the amount of
time specified with this setting, it determines which interface is
receiving data and switches to that interface. You can specify
either 10 seconds or 30 seconds for the auto interface wait time.
