Forms Width
FORMS WIDTH specifies the forms width in inches, millimeters or characters. All
three measurements will update the same configuration parameter. The default
values for forms width are 13.6 inches, 345.4 mm and 136 characters.
Note: The default values for forms width are 13.2 inches, 335.5 mm and 132
characters when pSeries, Coax/Twinax, IGP, Code V, or IPDS are installed.
FORMS WIDTH IN INCHES and FORMS WIDTH IN MM selections are not
available with the Coax/Twinax or IPDS emulation. The only variable
available with the Coax/Twinax and IPDS emulation is FORMS WIDTH IN
CHARACTERS.
Descriptions follow for the three ways of specifying the forms width:
Forms Width In Inches: Allows you to input the forms width in inches. Valid
values range from 00.1 through 13.6 inches, in increments of 0.1 inch.
Forms Width In MM: Allows you to input the forms width in millimeters. Valid
values range from .1 through 345.4, in increments of tenths of a millimeter (0.1
mm).
Forms Width In Characters: Allows you to input the forms width in characters.
The maximum forms width in characters depends on the current CPI setting; it is
equal to the maximum forms width in inches multiplied by the current CPI setting.
For example, at 10 CPI, the maximum forms width is:
10 CPI x 13.6 inches = 136 characters.
Only valid forms width values will be accepted. If a width is selected that is larger
than the maximum width for the current CPI, then the maximum width will be
used. If a larger width value is desired, then the CPI value must be changed first.
Note: To select forms width in characters greater than 132 characters for
Coax/Twinax, you must first change maximum printable width to 13.6
inches.
Receipt of a data stream control code that changes the page width overrides
the page width previously specified via the operator panel.
