EXAMPLE

The character size can be adjusted using both the Size and Wide functions. Since the charac-
ter size that can be used depends on the width of the tape, the following table shows the char-
acter sizes that can be used with each tape width.

The default size setting is AUTO and the default wide setting is OFF. The currently selected
size setting is always shown by the indicators above the display.
With the AUTO size setting, the machine compares your text with the width of the installed
tape and automatically adjusts the characters to the largest possible size. However, seven
other point sizes are also available, and each can be printed with either of the two width set-
tings.
