P-Series Emulation

Overstrike
• Enable. Common dots appear darker in characters printed over
each other, as shown below. The print position moves one-half dot
to the right. Overstrike printing occurs at a decreased speed.
• Disable. If you are using a control code for overstrike, but it is
disabled in the printer control panel, no bolding will occur.
Define LF Code
• LF = CR + LF. Forces an automatic carriage return with each line
feed command. The next print position is print position 1 of the next
line.
• LF = LF. Does not perform an automatic carriage return. The next
print position will be the current print position of the next line.
Select SFCC
This parameter allows you to select which ASCII codes will function as
the Special Function Control Code (SFCC) command delimiter.
P-Series codes can use hex 00 through hex 7F. Options include the
following:
• ESC (hex 1B)
• SOH (hex 01)
• ETX (hex 03)
• CIRCUMFLEX (hex 5E)—also called caret (^)
• TILDE (hex 7E)—(~)
NOTE: SOH, ETX and ESC are non-printables. The characters (^) and
(~) are printable; however, do not use them as printables in the
host data stream if either is chosen as a delimiter, or print
errors will occur.
