11.Set form length, right and left margins. To set form length, first measure the length of the form (in inches) and multiply this value by the vertical lines per inch. For example: if the form length is 11 inches and the vertical pitch is 6 lines per inch, then the form length would be:

11 inches x 6 lines per inch = form length 66 lines

To set the form length, open the keypad door and press the Quick Access key until “Form Length” appears in the display. Press the Value keys to change the setting and

press the Enter key to save the setting.

To set left and right margins, measure the printed width of the form (in inches excluding pinfeed holes) and multiply this value by the font pitch. The scale on the tear off bar may be used to estimate margin location for 10 cpi.

For example: if the printed form width is 8.5 inches and the font pitch is 10 characters per inch, then the form width would be:

8.5 inches by 10 cpi = right margin 85

To set the right margin, press the Quick Access key until “Right Margin” appears in the display. Press the Value keys to change the margin setting and press the Enter keys to save the setting. If you shift the left margin, you may want to shift the right margin by the same amount. Close the keypad door to exit Setup Mode. The LCD will read:
