Printing
Speed
The
speed
of
text
printing
is
measured
in
lines
per
minute
(lpm).
This
speed
is
dependent
upon
the
number
of
dot
rows
required
to
produce
a
line
of
characters,
regardless
of
the
number
of
characters
in
the
line.
Because
more
dot
rows
are
required
to
lowercase
characters
with
descenders,
those
character
lines
will
at
a
fractionally
lower
rate.
In
addition
to
character
printing,
the
printer
can
plot
dot-addressable
graphic
images.
The
speed
of
graphics
plotting
is
measured
in
inches
per
minute
(ipm).
Unidirectional
plotting
can
produce
better
quality
and
takes
about
twice
as
long
as
bidirectional
plotting.
You
can
select
either
plotting
mode
from
the
operator
panel
or
from
the
host
computer.
Printing
rates
also
vary
according
to
the
quality
you
select.
For
example,
if
you
select
the
Near
Letter
Quality
(NLQ)
option,
the
printer
uses
more
dot
rows
and
slower
strokes
to
form
characters
than
if
you
choose
the
Draft
Quality
option.
Character
formation
and
speed
are
faster
in
Draft
Quality
because
the
printer
uses
fewer
dot
rows
to
form
characters.
Printing
rates
are
listed
in

A,
“Printer
Specifications,”
