Skip over perforation
This feature is available only when
continuous paper is selected. When you turn
on this feature, the printer provides a
one-inch (25.4 mm) margin between the last
line printed on one page and the first line
printed on the next page. Because most
application program margin settings
override margin settings from the control
panel, you should use this setting only if you
cannot set your top and bottom margins
using your application.
Auto tear-off
When auto tear-off is on and you are using
continuous paper with the front or rear push
tractor, the printer automatically advances
the paper perforation to the tear-off position,
where you can easily tear off the printed
page(s). When the printer receives data
again, it automatically moves the paper back
to the top-of-form position and starts
printing, so you can use all of the next page.
When auto tear-off is off and you are using
continuous paper with the front or rear push
tractor, you need to move the perforation to
the tear-off position manually by pressing
the Tear Off/Bin button.
Auto line feed
When auto line feed is on, the printer
accompanies each carriage return (CR) code
received with a line feed (LF) code.
Print direction
You can select auto print direction,
bidirectional printing (Bi-D), or
unidirectional printing (Uni-D). Printing is
normally bidirectional; however,
unidirectional printing allows for precise
vertical printing alignment.

EPSON FX-880+/FX-1180+ Quick Guide
Software
When you select ESC/P, the printer operates
in the EPSON ESC/P mode. When you select
IBM PPDS, the printer emulates an IBM
printer.
I/F (interface) mode
The printer provides a slot for an optional
interface in addition to its built-in parallel
interface and USB interface. You can choose
Auto (automatic), Parallel, USB or Option
for the interface mode. When you select
Auto, the printer automatically selects the
interface that is receiving data, and uses that
interface until the end of the print job. The
Auto setting allows you to share the printer
among multiple computers without
changing the interface mode.
If only one computer is connected to the
printer, you can select Parallel, USB or
Option, depending on which interface your
computer uses.
Auto I/F (interface) wait time
When the printer is in the auto interface
mode and it receives no data from the
currently selected interface for the amount
of time specified with this setting, it
determines which interface is receiving data
and switches to that interface. You can
specify either 10 seconds or 30 seconds for
the auto interface wait time.
Parallel I/F bidirectional mode
The Parallel Interface bidirectional transfer
mode is used when this feature is on. If
bidirectional transfer mode is unnecessary,
turn this off.
