This chapter describes how to check and change IPDS configuration parameters for
your 4247 printer. The chapter is divided into sections according to parameter.
Refer to this partial table of contents for parameter and page listings.

Characters Per Inch (CPI)

You can set the Characters Per Inch (CPI) to any of the following values:
v

10

(Default)

v

12

v

15

v

16.7

Notes:

1.

It is possible to specify a CPI value that causes the page width (maximum print
position) to exceed the maximum physical page width. If this occurs, the
printer automatically changes the maximum print position to the highest valid
value for the new CPI setting. See “Maximum Print Position (MPP)” on page 60
for more information.

2.

This parameter can be overridden by the computer.

3.

Only 10 CPI is valid when either OCR-A or OCR-B is selected as a print
language.

To change or check the CPI value, follow these steps:
1.

Press MENU.

2.

Press SCROLL/MICRO or SCROLL/MICRO until the printer displays

CONFIGURATION MENU

3.

Press ENTER.
The printer displays

4.

Press ENTER to display the current value.

5.

Press SCROLL/MICRO or SCROLL/MICRO until the desired value for CPI
is displayed.

6.

Press ENTER.
An asterisk (*) will be displayed in front of the selected value.

menu” on page 39.
