12 Not Used

DIP switch 1: Horizontal print position

This switch changes the horizontal print position according to paper size. If you are using letter-size

paper or envelopes, set this switch to off.; the left margin will be 0.25 inch (6.4 mm). If you using A4-size

paper, set this switch to ON; the left margin will be 0.13 inch (3.4 mm).

DIP switch 2: Text scale mode

This setting determines how many lines fit onto a page by adjusting the line spacing. If you are using a

software application that assumes 66 lines will fit on each page, set this switch to ON. The printer will

reduce the line spacing by a factor of 14/15, which is from 62 lines per page to 66 lines per page if line

spacing is set to 6 lines per inch (lpi).

DIP switch 3: Character set

When this switch is OFF, the printer uses the Epson Italics character set, which includes italic characters.

When this switch is ON (which is the default factory setting), the printer uses the Epson Graphics

character set, which is the same as the MS-DOS code page 437 (this character set includes symbols, lines,

corners, and European characters).

To see samples of the character sets available in Epson LQ mode, use Canon's toll-free fax retrieval

system to request the BJC-610 Printer Command Summary.
