proportional spacing, bold print, and italic print. You can also specify if the zero
character will print with a slash. See page 4–60
for a detailed explanation of this
submenu.
Margins
The MARGINS parameter defines where the bottom, left, and right page margins
are located.
• LEFT MARGIN defines where the first print column is located. The left
margin is specified as the number of characters from the left edge of
the form.
• RIGHT MARGIN defines where the last print column is located. The right margin
is specified as the number of characters from the right edge of the form.
• TOP MARGIN defines the location of the first print line on the page. The top
margin is specified as the number of lines from the top of the form’s position.
• BOTTOM MARGIN defines the location of the last print line on the page.
The bottom margin is specified as the number of lines from the bottom
of the form’s position.
Forms Length
FORMS LENGTH specifies the forms length in lines. The maximum forms length
in lines depends on the current LPI setting; it is equal to the maximum forms
length in inches multiplied by the current LPI setting. For example, at 6 LPI the
maximum forms length is 6 LPI x 24 inches = 144 lines.
Only valid forms length values will be accepted. If you select a length that is
larger than the maximum length for the current LPI, the maximum length will be
used. If you need a longer page length, you must first change the LPI.
