Switch 1-5 controls the paper-end detector. When it is ON, the detector is inactive, causing printing to continue when the printer is out of paper. When it is OFF, the printer stops when the end of the paper passes the paper-end detector. See Paper Out Sensor in Chapter 6. Switches 7-6, 1-7, and 7-8 select the international character set as shown in Table D-2. Table D-2. International DIP switch settings Switch 2-1 controls the printing of zeroes. When it is ON, the zeroes are slashed (0); when it is OFF, they are not. Switch 2-2 regulates the way the LX-90 handles the eighth bit on codes sent to it. When the switch is OFF, the printer makes the eighth bit equal to zero. When it is ON, the printer does not change the eighth bit. For more information, see "Problem Codes" in Appendix E. Switch 2-3 controls line feeds. When it is ON, the LX-90 adds an automatic line feed to each carriage return; when it is OFF, it does not. If your printing has an extra space between lines, turn the switch OFF, If all the lines of your printing are on top of each other, turn the switch ON. Switch 2-4 enables the beeper to sound when it is OFF; when it is ON, the beeper cannot sound. D-3
