This field is displayed only when a wide carriage printer is specified on the Offline Printer Menu screen (see Page 3-15).

This option is available only if the attached Printer Type on the Offline Printer menu (Figure 3-7 on Page 3-15) is a wide body printer. The wide body printers are 1202, 4202, Epson LQ1050, and 4208. It is not available if the attached Printer Type is Plain.

Lines Per Inch

You can select a 3, 4, 6, 8, or 8.4 lines-per-inch setting for the printer. To select 3, 4, 6 (the default), 8, or 8.4 (LaserJet and 1808 printers only) lines per inch, highlight Lines/ Inch on the Online Printer menu and press Enter to select the setting required. The default value is 6.

This option is not available if you selected Plain as the attached Printer Type on the Offline Printer menu (Figure 3-7 on Page 3-15).

You can select from 0 through 127 lines per page. To select the lines per page, highlight Lines/Page on the Online Printer menu and press the Enter key. The current selection for the lines per page is displayed. Enter the number of lines per page you want, from 001 through 127, and press the Enter key. The default setting is 051.

Default to 17 CPI enables you to set the local screen printer to 10 or 12 characters per inch for Mod 2, Mod 3, and Mod 4 screens, and to change automatically to 17 CPI when a Mod 5 screen is printed. The display switches back to the CPI setting set in the Chars/ Inch menu selection. To set this feature, highlight Default to 17 CPI on the Online Printer menu and press Enter until Yes is displayed. The default setting is No.

This option is not available if you selected Plain as the attached Printer Type on the Offline Printer menu (Figure 3-7 on Page 3-15).
