enquiry response, accept control codes, disable echo, and enable XON/XOFF flow
control.

1,2 Enquiry Response: This determines what the printer will send back in response to
an enquiry. See chapter 5, table 8 for more details.
3 Control Codes: It is not acceptable in some applications to allow the printer to
accept control codes (ASCII characters below 20 hex), because of the way the host
computer interacts with the machine. This switch setting will allow or disallow printer
response to control code use.
