Chapter 3 Printer Configuration

Image Width

Image Width specifies the width of the image to be printed. The allowable range is 2.0 to 14.7 inches, in 0.1 inch increments. The factory default is 14.6 inches.

Form Length

Form Length is the logical form length for fanfold paper. You can specify the form length in either of two ways: in inches, or in the number of print lines (at six lines per inch).

Inch Select/Length in Inches (the default). This selection allows you to set the form length in inches. The range is from 1.0 to 30.0 inches, in one-half inch increments. The default is 11.0 inches.

6 LPI Select/Length at 6LPI. This selection allows you to set the form length in lines. The range is from 6 to 144 in one line increments. The default is 66 lines.

Paper Length

Paper Length is the physical form length for fanfold paper (the vertical perforation to perforation distance). You can specify the paper length in three ways: Auto Select, inches, or the number of print lines (at six lines per inch).

Auto Select (the default). Using this, the printer uses the current setting of the “Form Length” parameter to find the best physical paper length within the valid range, and then use that value. If the form length parameter setting is within the valid range for the paper length parameter, the printer uses the value for both the form length and paper length parameters. If the form length parameter is outside the valid range for the paper length parameter, the printer finds the closest multiple or divisor.
