11.3. Page Format

Function Y10: Page Format

Many types of printing from IBM software have been made for specific paper sizes that are larger or wider than A4 paper or letter-size paper. Other types of software expect a specific printer to be able to scale printing in order to fit the installed pa per. This will give you problems, when you use other printers as system printers. To overcome this problem, you can select different page formats coded into the interface via function Y10. When you do so, the interface will scale the printing to fit the paper size you use.

Syntax of the command: %Y10,<n1>[,n2]%

11.3.1 Formats

You can select between the following formats:

Value (n1)	Format	Characteristics
0	Portrait	No scaling
1	Landscape	No scaling
2	Computer Output	Scaled vertically to
	Reduction	70%
	(COR)	as on IBM 3812
82	COR, regardless of PPM	Scaled vertically to
	Print Quality	70% as on IBM 3812
