equals 0.351 mm or approximately 1/72 inch) for the
font represented by
Font Number
(page 3-20).
Appears only when the
Font Number
setting
specifies a scalable proportional spaced font, such as
Times New Roman.

your application does not, the printer assumes the
default setting here.

Appears only when an
optional lower base is
installed.
Default paper source in PCL if none is specified by
your software application.
The printer uses
Default Source
when there is no
paper source specified in the print job. Some software
applications have a paper source selection called
“Auto Select” or “Auto Sheet Feed” which usually
results in the omission of a paper source selection in a
print job.
When the printer uses
Default Source, Source
Mapping
(page 3-22) is used to determine the actual
tray or slot from which the printer pulls paper. See
Chapter 2: Handling Paper
,
“Selecting a Paper
Source” (page 2-22)
for more information on the
interaction of
Default Source
and
Source Mapping
.
