setting. The factory defaults are listed in bold type in the table
below. The printer’s current settings are marked with a

Setting Options Description
Print direction Auto, Bi-D, Uni-D Auto switches between bidirectional
printing for text data (the print head prints
in both directions) and unidirectional
printing for graphics data. For the fastest
printing of text only, select Bi-D; but if
vertical lines become misaligned, you’ll
need to turn it off or align the print heads
(see page 5-7 for instructions). For the
most accurate alignment when printing
graphics, select Uni-D.
