• When the first character at the head of a line is developed, if the print area width is
too small for the horizontal width of the character you are attempting to develop
(including the right space), the following processing is carried out for that line
only.
(1) The printer enlarges the print area to the right to a size where that character can
fit as long as it doesn't exceed the printable area.
(2) If a sufficient amount of space still cannot be secured by the processing in (1),
the print area is enlarged to the left (the left margin is reduced).
(3) If a sufficient amount of space still cannot be secured by the processing in (2),
the right space is erased.
• When developing a bit image (or a downloaded bit image), if the print area width
does not fill the bit image's minimum horizontal width (2 dots for single density, 1
dot for double density), the following processing is carried out for that line only.
(1) The print area is enlarged to the right until it is equal to the minimum horizon-
tal width of the bit image, as long as it doesn't exceed the printable area.
(2) If a sufficient amount of space still cannot be secured by the processing in 1,
the print area is enlarged to the left (the left margin is reduced).
• The initial value is “n1 = B0”, “n2 = 1”.
