Forms Length In Inches
Allows you to input the forms length in inches. Valid values range from 00.1
through 24 inches, in increments of 0.1 inch. (This option not available for the
coax interface.)
Forms Length In MM
Allows you to input the forms length in millimeters. Valid values range from
000.1 through 609.6 millimeters, in increments of tenths of a millimeter (0.1
mm). (This option not available for the coax interface.)
Forms Length In Lines
Allows you to input the forms length in lines. The maximum forms length in
lines depends on the current LPI setting; it is equal to the maximum forms
length in inches multiplied by the current LPI setting.
For example, at 6 LPI the maximum forms length is:
6 LPI x 24 inches = 144 lines
Only valid forms length values will be accepted. If you select a length that is
larger than the maximum length for the current LPI, the maximum length will
be used. If you need a longer page length, you must first change the LPI.
IMPORTANT
If the forms length is set in lines and you change the LPI, the effective
page length changes to the forms length in characters divided by the
new LPI. For example, if the current forms length is 66 lines and you
change the LPI from 6 LPI to 8 LPI, then the effective forms length
changes from 11 inches to 8.25 inches.
NOTE:
This only applies if the forms length is set in lines. If the forms length
is set in inches or millimeters, changing the LPI does not affect the
effective forms length.
Receipt of a data stream control code which changes the forms
length overrides the forms length previously specified via the operator
panel.
