Character spacing
ln
normal draft and
NLQ
mode, you can select proportional spacing
or a character spacing: of
lO
or
12
characters per
inch
(cpi)
with
software commands, In high-speed draft
mode, only
10
cpi
printing
is available. (Ten
cpi
is
the printer’s default character spacing.)
ln
the
10
and
12
cpi
modes, each character gets an equal amount of
space.
In
proportional mode, the spacing varies from character to
character. A narrow letter like
the lowercase
i
receives less space
than the uppercase
W.
