Ignoring/Using the Carriage Return
This function allows the printer to ignore or use the Carriage Return (Hex 0D) command
depending on the application. Some applications expect the command to be ignored while
others use the command as a print command.
Caution: The DIP switches are pre-set at the factory and should generally not be changed.
If you must change them, do so carefully to avoid changing other functions.
1.
Turn the power off.
2.
Turn the printer over and note what the current DIP switch settings are.

Running the Data Scope Mode
This test prints a Hex dump of all data sent to the printer: “1” prints as Hex 31, “A” as Hex
41 and so on. This helps troubleshoot communication problems, and runs during a normal
host application (after being enabled in level 1 diagnostics).
Enter the Data Scope Mode
Caution: The DIP switches are pre-set at the factory and should generally not be changed.
If you must change them, do so carefully to avoid changing other functions. Run the print
test to see if the Data Scope Mode is on or off. See “Testing The Printer” in chapter 2.
