1.2 inches to the left; the rightmost print position and right
margin move 1.2 inches to the right. The result is a 16-
inch wide print line. When 16-inch wide text printing is
disabled, the leftmost and rightmost print positions,
margins and horizontal tabs return to their original
locations.
With 16-inch wide text printing enabled, text prints uni-
directionally; that is, text printing occurs only while the
car-riage moves from left to right across the platen. Also,
draft-quality text printing is disabled. If you select draft-
quality, the printer substitutes memo-quality. Also, the
letter- and memo-quality print speeds are slower than
normal.
This sequence does not affect graphics printing. If you
want to print 16-inch wide graphics, you must use the 16-
Inch Wide Graphics sequence.
Note: With 16-inch wide text printing enabled, be sure to
load paper in the printer so that it aligns with the blue line
on the paper scale. This ensures that printing does not run
off the left side of the page.
