information about the SGEA command, refer to the 6400 Coax/Twinax
Programmer’s Reference Manual.
• ENABLE (the default) is the host setting for the SGEA and is used by
the printer. If the SGEA command is requested to stop on graphic errors,
the printer will stop when a graphic error is detected.
• DISABLE ignores the SGEA command from the host. The printer does
not stop when an error is detected; instead, it substitutes the character
selected in the “UNDEFINED CHARACTER SUBSTITUTION” menu
entry.
Undefined Character Substitution
UNDEFINED CHARACTER SUBSTITUTION specifies the replacement
character to print in place of any unprintable character that is received from
the host. The character becomes the printer default when:
• The printer is powered off and then powered on.
• An SGEA command specifies to use the operator panel default.
• The “UNDEFINED CHARACTER REPORTING” option is disabled.
The character code point can range from hex 40 to hex FE. The factory
default is set to hex 60.
Load Alternate Character Option
The LOAD ALTERNATE CHARACTER (LAC) OPTION allows the host
system to load alternate character images into the printer. This may be used
for designing graphics, bar codes, and charts, or for printing in foreign
languages.
• ENABLE (the default) prints the LAC character as defined.
• DISABLE ignores the LAC definition from the host and prints from the
currently selected character set.
Print Text Direction
PRINT TEXT DIRECTION specifies the direction in which characters are
printed on the page. This allows the printer to print languages that are printed
right to left instead of left to right.
• CONTROL BY HOST (the default)
• LEFT TO RIGHT
• RIGHT TO LEFT
