Overview 1–11
Plot Rate
The MVP–Series printers are capable of dot–addressable graphic plotting, as
well as character printing. Based on the protocol selected either P–Series or
Serial Matrix, you may select either Plot Mode or Bit Image Graphics
respectively. The plot rate specifications apply to both P–Series and Serial
Matrix types of graphic plotting. The bi–directional plot rate in inches per
minute (ipm) is shown in Table 1–2 according to the dot density in dots per
inch, (dpi). Complete plotting specifications are provided in Appendix C.
Table 1–2. Plot Rate
Plot Rate (ipm)
Density (dpi) MVP L150 150B/L150B
100 Horiz x 96 Vert (NLQ mode) 8.3 N/A 8.3
60 Horiz x 72 Vert (DP mode) 16.7 N/A 16.7
62.5 Horiz x 64 Vert (HS mode) 18.7 N/A 8.7
50 Horiz x 48 Vert (HSB mode) 25 13.8 27.8
100 Horiz x 72 Vert (HSC mode) 8.3 13.0 10.4
NOTE: Unidirectional plotting produces better print quality than
bi–directional, and can be selected from the control panel; however,
unidirectional plotting reduces the plot rate by half.
