Note: For DI portrait printing, characters having a height of more than 9
dots (DBCS 16x16 dots) require a two-pass print, with paper fed
in-between the lines (4 steps). The actual lines-per-inch will be
adjusted. For example, if the printer is set to 1/6-inch line spacing,
the printer will line feed 8 steps in-between each line, and the 4
steps inside of the line. The result is 10 steps per line or 4 lines per
inch.
