COMMAND 38: TRUE LPI SPACING (LASER)
Because laser printers have a non-printable border around the edge of single-
sheet pages, 6-LPI and 8-LPI spacing is compressed slightly to enable 66 lines
and 88 lines to be printed on 11-inch long paper. This can occasionally cause
a problem, especially with preprinted forms. Command 38 enables a user to
override the normal laser printer LPI compression.
VALUE DESCRlPTlON
*0 Compress the vertical LPI spacing
1 Print using true 6 and 8 LPI spacing
NOTE: If true LPI is selected, the user needs to adjust the document formats
to allow for the reduced number of lines that can be printed per page;
otherwise, blank pages are ejected by the laser printer because of
blank line feeds that do not fit on the reduced page size. (Refer to the
laser printer’s operator’s manual.)
EXAMPLE: &%Z38,1 Specifies that vertical spacing prints using true 6 and
8 LPI. For an 11" page, 63 lines at 6 LPI or 84 lines
at 8 LPI are the maximum that fit on a page
COMMAND 40: ALTERNATE DELIMITER CHARACTERS
Specifies two characters in addition to &% which can be used for the ‘delimiter’
characters for Command-Pass-Thru and Host Download Commands.
VALUE DESCRIPTION
0000 Deletes previously selected alternate characters
XXYY XX is the ASCII HEXADECIMAL value of the first character
and YY is the ASCII HEX value of the second character.
EXAMPLE: &%Z40,253F Specifies the %? characters as the alternate
‘delimiter’ characters, % ASCII hex value is 25 and ?
ASCII hex value is 3F in this example.
