Setting the Printing Modes
Print Direction
The PRINT DIRECTION Option allows you to define the print direction when a line feed
occurs.
Value Definition
Unidirectional
The printing direction is the same each time. This setting may be
necessary due to specific drivers compatibility.
Bidirectional
The print direction changes for each line feed. This setting gives the
highest printing speed.
Soft. Control
The print direction depends on the software commands received by the
printer.
Note:
The Unidirectional and the Bidirectional settings apply to both
alphanumeric and graphics printing.

feed command in the following ways:
