IPDS Menu Item
Value
Description
DEF FGID
nnnnn
Specifies the default FGID (Font Typeface Global Identifier), which
identifies the default resident font the printer uses. The default FGID
is 416, which specifies Courier 10 point as the default resident font.
To display the list of fonts and FGIDs the printer supports, print out
a list of IPDS resident fonts (see “Printing a List of IPDS Resident
Fonts” on page 22).
CPI
nn.n
Selects characters-per-inch (pitch) for the default font. Valid values
are 5.0 to 30.0 in tenths of an inch. The default value is 10.
VPA CHK
ON*
OFF
Turns valid printable area checking on or off.
v
ON—the printer checks for pels that fall outside the intersection of
the logical and physical pages. If pels fall outside the area, the
printer reports an error to the host if the IPDS Exception Handling
Control command setting requires error reporting.
v
OFF—The printer does not report pels outside the valid printable
area.
X-OFFSET
nnn
Sets the print offset in the X (horizontal) direction. nnn can be from
-999 to 999. The default setting is 0 pels. Positive values move the
starting point for printing to the right of the physical point of origin.
Negative values move the starting point for printing to the left. The
physical point of origin is towards the top left corner of a portrait
page. If you rotate the page, the physical point of origin rotates as
well.
Note: The X-OFFSET and Y-OFFSET options are intended to allow
line printer print jobs to fit on a page where edge-to-edge printing is
not possible. Using X-OFFSET and Y-OFFSET is NOT
recommended when generating new applications, especially duplex
applications.
Y-OFFSET
nnn
Sets the print offset in the Y (vertical) direction. nnn can be from
-999 to 999. The default setting is 0 pels. Positive values move the
starting point for printing down from the physical point of origin.
Negative values move the starting point for printing up. The physical
point of origin is towards the top left corner of a portrait page. If you
rotate the page, the physical point of origin rotates as well.
Note: The X-OFFSET and Y-OFFSET options are intended to allow
line printer print jobs to fit on a page where edge-to-edge printing is
not possible. Using X-OFFSET and Y-OFFSET is NOT
recommended when generating new applications, especially duplex
applications.
