LQ/FX Menu 6: Automatic Margins

If your printer is set for LQ or FX emulation, this menu is valid only when you are printing on continuous paper using the optional push tractor unit. When this menu is on, the printer leaves a margin between the last printed line on one page and the first printable line on the next page. Most software applications take care of your top and bottom margins and control when the printer skips to a new page, so you should keep this menu at the factory default setting. Set automatic margins on only if your application program does not control the margins. For more details, see the manual included with the optional pull tractor. The factory setting is 60: off.

Menu 7: Lines Per Page (LQ/FX)

When you are using LQ or FX mode, you can set the number of lines per page using this menu. The number of lines per page is calculated based on a line spacing of l/6 inch, regardless of the current line space setting. The maximum number changes according to the current paper size and the orientation. The factory setting is 62 lines.

If you want to change the lines per page setting, follow the steps under Menu 7 in the section on HP emulation mode menus.
