Carriage Return

ASCII Code CR

Hex Code 0D

Dec Code 13

Purpose Returns the logical print head to the first character column

(resets the pointer to the first character position).

Discussion The CR code may or may not cause printing or paper motion,

depending on the Define CR Code value defined in the

configuration menus. If the Define CR Code submenu displays:

The characters following the CR are printed over the previous

characters on the line. If identical characters are placed in the

same position on the line, those characters will be printed in

emphasized print when the Overstrike mode is enabled from the

control panel.

The CR=CR configuration causes subsequent printable data to

overprint previous data at half speed if Overstrike is enabled

from the control panel (and prints somewhat faster if Overstrike

is disabled), unless an intervening paper motion command is

received.

If the Define CR Code submenu displays:

Control code CR is converted to perform a carriage return and

line feed function.
