Form Width
The form width can be specified in inches, millimeters, or as a function of the
current cpi (characters per inch). The forms width set should not exceed the
actual paper width.
Select CPI
This parameter allows you to specify the characters per inch (cpi) values.
The options are 10.0, 12.0, 13.3, 15.0, 17.1, and 20.0. The factory default is
10.0 CPI.
Select LPI
This parameter allows you to specify the lines per inch (lpi) values.
The options are 6.0, 8.0, and 10.3 LPI. The factory default is 6.0 LPI.
P-Series SFCC
This parameter allows you to select which ASCII codes will function as the
Special Function Control Code (SFCC) command delimiter.
P-Series codes can use hex 00 through hex 7F. Options include the following:
• SOH (hex 01) (default)
• ESC (hex 1B)
• ETX (hex 03)
• CIRCUMFLEX (hex 5E) – also called caret (^)
• TILDE (hex 7E) – (~)
NOTE: SOH, ETX, and ESC are non-printables. The characters (^) and (~)
are printable; however, do not use them as printables in the host data
stream if either is chosen as a delimiter because print errors will
occur.
Margins
• Left Margin . Set in columns. Column zero is defined as the far left edge
of the page, and column numbering increments from left to right.
• Right Margin . Set in columns. Column zero is defined as the far right
edge of the page, and column numbering increments from right to left.
• Top Margin . Defined in lines, starting from line zero at the top of the page
and incrementing from the top down.
• Bottom Margin . Defined in lines, starting from line zero at the bottom of
the page and incrementing from the bottom up.
Form Length
Form length is the number of lines that can be printed on a page. You can set
the form length in inches, millimeters (mm), or as a function of the current lpi
(lines per inch).
