I-Prime, Default = Buffer Print Determines what the printer will do when it receives the I-Prime signal from the software. • Buffer Print: prints out the buffer contents before resetting. • Buffer Clear: dumps the buffer contents immediately. • Invalid: causes the printer to ignore the I-Prime command. Select this setting if you wish to enter settings through the printer's control panel which will not be automatically overridden by the software's settings when the I-Prime signal is sent. Language Set, Default = American Replaces certain standard symbols with special characters used in foreign languages. Line Spacing, Default = 6 lpi Change to 8 lines per inch (lpi) to get more lines on a page. Operator Panel Function, Default = Full Operation Change to Limited Operation to deactivate the PRINT QUALITY and CHARACTER PITCH buttons, so that these features can only be controlled through your software. This prevents these from being changed from the control panel when several people are using the printer. Important! This feature also prevents access to the Menu. To access the Menu in these circumstances, turn the printer off, then hold down the SEL key while turning on the printer. Page Length, Default = 11" Selects the length of the paper you are using. This enables the printer to keep track of the initial printing position (TOF) on each page. Page Length Control, Default = by Actual Page Length If you are printing single sheets no longer than 17 inches and wish the printer to acknowledge the menu setting for Top Feed Page Length, change the setting to "by Menu Setting." 38 Microline 420/421User's Guide
