The CPI setting you choose directly influences the MPP value you select. The MPP
and CPI settings determine the length of the print line. The maximum line length
for the printer is 345.44 mm (13.6 in.).
The CPI setting and the line length determine the MPP. Multiply the CPI by the
line length to determine the appropriate MPP:
MPP = CPI x line length (in inches)
If your CPI is: MPP cannot be greater than:
10 136
12 163
15 204
16.7 227
17.1 233
20 272
Notes:
1. Setting the MPP larger than the paper width can result in lost data because of
printing on the platen and may damage the platen and the printhead.
2. This parameter can be overridden by the computer.
To change or check the MPP value, follow these steps:
1.

Maximum Page Length (MPL)
You can set the maximum page length (MPL) for the printer from 1–880 lines,
depending on the LPI setting. The default value is 66 lines.
MPL equals the number of print lines the printer can print on a page. MPL is the
page length stated in number of print lines.
See the following example to determine how to calculate the MPL.
