Matrix

There are two font modes available on your printer. One mode is called En- hanced and the other is called CDF (for Constant Density Font). Enhanced fonts include Draft and Data Processing, Near Letter Quality (Gothic and Courier), and Optical Character Recognition Fonts (OCR-A and OCR-B). Constant Density fonts include only Draft and Data Processing. In addition, the available CPI options are different for each mode.

When this option is set to Enhanced, characters printed at 12, 13.3, 15, and

17.14will use a denser character matrix than that of the default CDF matrix. If this option is set to CDF and a CDF font matrix is not available for the current

Font Style and CPI, the Enhanced matrix will be selected.

CPI Selection is limited in the CDF Mode. The Specifications Section of this manual has a listing of the CPI options available in Constant Density fonts. If you select a CPI value, either through the Control Panel or via an escape sequence from the host computer, that is not available in Constant Density Mode, the printer will automatically switch to Enhanced Mode for printer output.

OCRA Density

This parameter sets the density for the OCRA font. There are three options: Standard, Enhanced, and High. Standard is the default option and prints at 85 DPI vertical. Choosing the Enhanced option will cause the OCR-A font to be printed at 96 DPI vertical. Choosing the High option will cause the OCR-A font to be printed at 144 DPI vertical. Standard and Enhanced print at the same speed, but the enhanced font is slightly shorter than the Standard. High prints at a slower speed.
