Printer Emulation Configuration Menu
The following table lists the maximum number of characters that can be
printed for a given Characters Per Inch (CPI) setting.
IMPORTANT
If the forms width is set in characters and the CPI is changed, the
effective page width is changed to be equal to the forms width in
characters divided by the new CPI. For example, if the current forms
width is 132 characters and the CPI is changed from 10 CPI to 15 CPI,
the effective forms width changes from 13.2 inches to 8.8 inches.
NOTE:
This applies only if the forms width is set in characters. If the forms
width is set in inches or millimeters (mm), changing the CPI does not
affect the effective forms width.
Forms Length
FORMS LENGTH specifies the forms length in inches, millimeters or lines. All
three measurements will update the same configuration parameter. The
default values for forms length are 11 inches, 279.4 millimeters, or 66 lines
per page.
Descriptions follow for the three ways of specifying the forms length:
NOTE:
The actual value displayed for forms length set in inches and mm can
be greater than the maximum values listed on the operator panel
because the number of lines can exceed actual inches and mm
values.
FORMS LENGTH IN INCHES and FORMS LENGTH IN MM
selections are not available with the Coax/Twinax or IPDS
emulations. The only variable available with the Coax/Twinax and
IPDS emulations is FORMS LENGTH IN LINES.
