Page 2-13CHAPTER 2 — ADVANCED CONFIGURATION
Note: The LINEFEED option for vertical movement is included only for
compatibility with older applications, and it should not ordinarily be
selected by the user.
Resolution
HOR RES= and VER RES= should be set to the units used by the printer
for the command in the HORMOVE> and VERMOVE> PFSs. Choose the
smallest unit size that the printer is capable of accepting (720 DPI, or 1/
720-inch, is the smallest unit size; 60 DPI, or 1/60-inch, is the largest
unit size). This allows the OPTIMA to calculate the parameter values to
insert into those PFSs.
The VER RES= setting (6 LPI is the default value) is used in calculating
the VERMOVE> PFS parameter. The HOR RES= setting (180 DPI is the
default) is used to calculate the parameters for the HORMOVE>,
SNDMOVE> and SENDHMI> PFSs. (The SNDMOVE> and SENDHMI>
PFSs are used for justification.)
Note: The 6 LPI option is included only for compatibility with older
applications, and it should not ordinarily be selected by the user.
VRELMAX= is used to specify the maximum parameter value allowed for
the VERMOVE> PFS. Unless this value is set to NONE, large relative
vertical movements will be broken up into several smaller movements.
This option is used only if the VERMOVE= parameter is set to RELATIVE.
The default value is 1 LINE, but this value is not intended for selection
by the user. It is included only for compatibility with older applications
and in conjunction with the 6 LPI vertical resolution mentioned above.
Offset
The H OFF= and V OFF= options allow the user to offset all printing
from the left and top edges of the paper, respectively. These options can be
used to help place text onto preprinted forms.
The horizontal offset option (H OFF=) specifies a left margin that will be
added to any system-requested left margin in non-COR jobs. The vertical
offset option (V OFF=) specifies a top margion that will be added to any
system-requested top margin in non-COR jobs. The default value is NONE,
but the user may selct any value between .05 inches and 1 inch.
