Data Bit 8
(From page 188.)
• Enable. The PI line is not passed directly from host to printer; all 8 bits are
used for data bits, and characters in the hex 80-FF range can be
accessed.
• Disable. When the host PI line is enabled, data bit 8 internally indicates
PI line status. To use the PI line, disable data bit 8, and enable the Host PI
configuration option (under the PI Ignored option).
NOTE: Data bit 8 is interpreted as either data bit 8 or PI signal, but never
both. When enabled as data bit 8, data bit 8 has priority over the PI
signal, and all data above hex 7F is used to access character data
and not to interpret PI line data.
Conversely, when data bit 8 is disabled and the PI signal is used, data
bit 8 of the data is reserved for use as the PI function, and you cannot
access characters in the hex 80-FF range. Therefore, to access
characters in the hex 80-FF range, data bit 8 must be enabled.
The factory default is Enable.
Default Code Pag
(From page 175.)
This item allows you to select the desired default codepage to be used when
IPDS is not activating a Code Page ID. Refer to the
IPDS Programmer’s
Reference Manual
for a list of the code pages.
The factory default is English/USA/Can.
Default Font
(From page 175.)
This item allows you to select the desired default resident font to be used
when IPDS is not activating a Font Global ID. Refer to the
IPDS
Programmer’s Reference Manual
for a list of the fonts.
The factory default is Courier 10.
Define CR code
(From page 184, page 193, page 196, page 198, page 200.)
This option controls the action of the printer when it receives a Carriage
Return code (0D hex) from the host computer. If this feature is enabled, each
time the printer receives a carriage return, it inserts an additional Line Feed
code (0A hex) into the data stream. Do not use this feature if the host
computer sends line feeds to the printer.
NOTE: For this menu to take effect in PGL, PGL Normal needs to be set to
PGL Menu (see page 185).
