Prop. Spacing (Proportional Spacing)
Each printed character is contained inside a character cell. The width of the
character cell includes the character and the space around the character.
•
Disable (factory default). Each character cell is printed with the same
width. Each column in the printed text will line up.
•
Enable . The width of each character cell varies with the width of the
character. For example, [i] takes less space to print than [m]. Using
proportional fonts generally increases the readability of printed
documents, giving text a typeset appearance.
