Right Margin:

This setting can modify the right margin when the ‘Custom’ ‘Page Size’ is selected. You may choose to avoid any changes by selecting ‘Use Paper Size’ which will assume you wish to use the full 8” available print width. You may also choose to set a number of columns of unprinted right margin. The actual empty width created will depend upon the current character pitch as set by ‘Default Pitch’. For example, if the default pitch is set to 12 characters per inch, and you set the left margin to ‘9’, there will be a 3/4” (9 x 1/12”) left margin established. If the current ‘Default Pitch’ is set to ‘Proportional’, 10 characters per inch pitch is used for this calculation. Values that cause the printable page width (the space left on the page by the difference between left and right margins) of as little as 1/5”are allowed.

Text Line Spacing:

This setting is used to modify the amount of vertical space that is used for each line of text. If you select ‘6 Lines/Inch’, lines of text will be created every 1/6”. If you select ‘8 Lines/Inch’, lines of text will be created every 1/8”. Since the “IBM graphics characters” used to create boxes and lines are 0.12” tall, when printing documents that contain these characters, you will want to select “8 Lines/Inch (0.12”)” to assure that the tops and bottoms of the graphics characters touch.
