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.
Print Quality
NOTE: When using bold or emphasized printing, the printer prints two dots
instead of one to produce the desired effect. This does not affect
characters per inch.
This parameter specifies the density (quality) of printing:
•
DP Quality (the default)
•
Near Letter Quality
•
OCR A
•
OCR B
•
Draft
•
NLQ Sans Serif
NOTE: Receipt of a data stream control sequence that changes the print
quality overrides the print quality specified via the operator panel.
