INTRODUCTION

Multiple fonts. The printer has nineteen resident fonts: Ten bit- map fonts — Courier 10, Pica 10, Prestige Elite 12, Boldface PS, OCR-B 10, OCR-A 10, Correspondence, Compressed, Draft, and High-speed Draft and nine outline fonts — Timeless, Nimbus Sans, and Courier, each in upright, italic, and bold.

High-speed printing. At 10 cpi, print speed ranges from 113 cps for letter quality to 360 cps for high-speed draft quality.

Large print buffer. 128K bytes are available in total for storing input data and downloading fonts. A large input data buffer allows you to send files to the printer and return to work in your application. A large download buffer allows you to use custom fonts.

80-column or 136-column print line. 80-column printers print in landscape mode using letter- or A4- size paper. 136-column printers print in landscape mode using legal- or standard-size computer forms.

Simple switching of paper types. The ability to "park" continuous forms makes it easy to switch between continuous forms and single sheets. This switching is possible even for an optional cut sheet feeder.

Bottom feeding capability. The tractor unit is removable and can be converted to push-feed or pull-feed. Installing the tractor unit on the platen allows the paper to be fed through the slot at the bottom of the printer.

Auto tearoff. Continuous forms are fed automatically up to the tear-off position at the end of each job.

Maintenance-free. The printer only requires periodic cleaning and changing of the ribbon cartridge.
