The height of the bottom margin is expressed in lines of text. For example, if [Bottom Margin] is set to 6 lines, and if [Text Line Spacing] is set to 6 lines per inch, the actual height of the bottom margin is 1 inch
(25.4 mm).
Note that the minimum height of the bottom margin must be at least 0.5 inches (12.7 mm). For example, if [Text Line Spacing] is set to 6 lines per inch, [Bottom Margin] must be set to at least 3 lines.
The maximum setting is the number of lines determined by the [Form Length] setting – 1.
4Text Line Spacing
Available settings: [6 Lines/Inch], [8 Lines/Inch (0.125")], [8 Lines/Inch (0.12")] Default setting: [6 Lines/Inch]
This parameter determines the height of each line of text. When [Extended Characters] is set to [Graphics] in order to print graphic characters, we recommend selecting [8 Lines/Inch (0.12")] because graphic characters are 0.12 inches (3.1 mm) tall.
5Left Margin
Available settings: [Use Paper Size],
[Columns] (number of columns can be specified)
Default setting: [Use Paper Size]
Use Paper Size - The default margins determined by the paper size setting are used, providing for 8 inches (203.2 mm) of available print width.
Columns - The left margin equals the number of columns (specified here) multiplied by the width of the number of columns specified. The width of each column is determined by the [Default Pitch] setting. For example, if [Left Margin] is set to 12, and [Default Pitch] is set to [12 characters/inch], the actual width of the left margin is 1 inch (25.4 mm). Note that if [Default Pitch] is set to [Proportional], 10 characters/inch is used for this calculation.
The maximum width of the left margin is 4.5 inches (114.3 mm).
6Right Margin
Available settings: [Use Paper Size],
[Columns] (number of columns can be specified)
Default setting: [Use Paper Size]
Use Paper Size - The default margins determined by the paper size setting are used, providing for 8 inches (203.2 mm) of available print width.
Columns - The right margin equals the number of columns (specified here)
multiplied by the width of the number of columns specified. The width of each
column is determined by the [Default 3 Pitch] setting. For example, if [Right
Margin] is set to 12, and [Default Pitch] is set to [12 characters/inch], the actual width of the left margin is 1 inch (25.4 mm). Note that if [Default Pitch] is set to [Proportional], 10 characters/inch is used for this calculation.
The maximum width of the right margin is a setting that results in 0.2 inches (5.08 mm) of printable page width (the space between the left and right margins).
7Default Pitch
Available settings: [10 characters/inch], [12 characters/inch], [15 characters/inch], [Proportional]
Default setting: [12 characters/inch]
This parameter determines character width. When 10, 12, or 15 characters/inch is selected, each character is the same width. For example, the letters “w” and “i” will be the same width. When [Proportional] is selected, character width varies by character. For example, the letter “w” will be wider than the letter “i”. Note that the setting selected here affects the width of the left and right margins.
