need to change the printer functions described in this section.

mode and change the settings using the control panel buttons.

Print direction.
Specifies how the print head moves across
the page. The options are Uni-D, Bi-D, and Auto (default).
When Uni-D is on, the print head prints in only one direction
to provide the most precise alignment for graphics and text.
In Bi-D printing, the print head prints in both directions. Bi-D
is faster, but the vertical alignment may not be as precise as
Uni-D. When Auto is selected, the printer switches
automatically between Uni-D and Bi-D as necessary when it
receives data.
