Chapter 4 Configuration Overview

Changing Parameter Settings
You may change a printer parameter setting, such as line spacing
or forms length, either by pressing keys on the control panel or by
sending emulation control codes in the data stream from a host
attached to the printer. The control panel allows you to configure
the printer’s resident set of configuration menus. An example
procedure for using the control panel to change parameter settings
begins on page 55.
When control codes are sent from a host attached to the printer,
they override control panel settings. For example, if you set the line
spacing to 6 lpi with the control panel, and application software later
changes this to 8 lpi with a control code, the control code overrides
the control panel setting.
Saving Parameter Settings
The parameter settings that you have changed using the menus
and control codes will be permanently stored in the printer’s
memory. Changes made to the Factory Default configuration menu
items will always be written to the first available Config (#) where #
equals the next available unassigned configuration number and can
be made with or without the Protect Config option disabled.
You may also save your new configurations using the PTX_SETUP
command host control code. See your
LinePrinter Plus
Programmer’s Reference Manual
for details.
