Scale
83
If the ending row is less than the starting row, the
rows are automatically switched. The same is done
with the ending and starting column.
EC
Defines the ending column of the reverse print field.
Enter a value ranging from column 2 through the
last column of the form. The ending column must
be greater than the starting column. Character
column or dot column is specified based on the
Scale command (page 83), or use the CP.DP
format (page 26).
STOP Stop indicates the end of the REVERSE command;
enter STOP, and the IGP will wait for a new
command. If not entered, the IGP will expect
another set of Reverse Print command parameters.
Comments You can use reverse print with all form elements (alpha, lines,
boxes, etc.). The IGP can also reverse print bar codes, but
reverse printed bar codes are unreadable by scanning devices.
Scale
Purpose Defines the vertical line spacing and the horizontal pitch of the
form for data positioning specified by character row and column
or dot row and column.

SCALE The Scale command; enter SCALE.
DOT Specifies the dot scale. Enter DOT.
horz/vert
Gives resolution for the dot parameter. Default is 60
dpi (horizontal) by 72 dpi (vertical).
CHAR Specifies the character scale. Enter CHAR.
lpi
The optional vertical line spacing parameter (in
lines per inch) for character scaling. Enter 6, 8, 9, or
10. The default is 6 lpi.
cpi
The optional horizontal pitch parameter (in
characters per inch) for character scaling. Enter 10,
12, 13, 15, 17, or 20. The default is 10 cpi.
Comments If the character scale is selected, starting row/column or ending
row/column parameters are specified by character row and
column. The lines per inch (lpi) value for a character scale form
can be 6, 8, 9, or 10. Characters per inch (cpi) can be either 10,
12, 13, 15, 17, or 20. For example, on a printer with a maximum
print width of 80 columns, an 8-1/2 x 11-inch form at the 6 lpi 10
cpi default has 66 rows and 80 columns in the character scale.
