To activate these FRPO settings for PCL, the R3 parameter must be set to 1. Note that the R3 parameter applies only to PCL emulation. FRPO edge limit and margin limit settings are always acknowledged when the base emulation is ProPrinter or LinePrinter. U0-U1: Line spacing This sets the number of lines printed per inch. U0 and U1 represent the integer part and the fraction part of the line spacing value, respectively. If U0 is set to 5 and U1 is set to 63, then line spacing is 5.63 lines per inch. U6: Country code U6 is used to set the default symbol set. The factory default value for U6 in the PRESCRIBE emulation is set to 255. This forces the U6 parameter to be ignored and the symbol set to be initialized according to the printer control panel setting for symbol set. If a specific symbol set other than the default is required, then U6 should be set accordingly.

R3: Use FRPO edge limits and margins
By default, FRPO edge limit settings (L5–L8) and FRPO margin settings (A1–A8) are ignored when the base
emulation is PCL. To activate these FRPO settings for PCL, the R3 parameter must be set to 1. Note that the R3
parameter applies only to PCL emulation. FRPO edge limit and margin limit settings are always acknowledged
when the base emulation is ProPrinter or LinePrinter.
U0–U1: Line spacing
This sets the number of lines printed per inch. U0 and U1 represent the integer part and the fraction part of the
line spacing value, respectively. If U0 is set to 5 and U1 is set to 63, then line spacing is 5.63 lines per inch.
U6: Country code
U6 is used to set the default symbol set. The factory default value for U6 in the PRESCRIBE emulation is set to
255. This forces the U6 parameter to be ignored and the symbol set to be initialized according to the printer
control panel setting for symbol set. If a specific symbol set other than the default is required, then U6 should
be set accordingly.
