Compressed Printing (16.7 Cpi); Elongated Printing (Double-Width); Actual 16. 7 Cpi Size And Width - Honeywell PRU7070 Handbook

Compressed Printing (16.7 CPI)
When the printers are powered up, character spacing is determined by internal
switch setting (see Appendix A). Compressed printing can be selected by a
~~Set
16.7 CPI" command and disabled only by a
~~Set
10 CPI" command. Character
density commands must be sent at the beginning of the line; character density
cannot be changed when a line is printing.
Compressed characters are printed with an actual character pitch of16. 7 cpi, and
their horizontal width and inter-character space is proportionally reduced.
When compressed printing is activated, the same print speed of that at 10 cpi is
maintained and the other running attributes are not restored. In the
PRU7075/7076, compressed line length printing is 220 characters that are left
justified.

Elongated Printing (Double-Width)
Elongated characters are printed, doubling the current horizontal character width
Hnd the inter-character space. Using this
printingcapability~
it is possible to print
lines up to 40 elongated normal characters or up to 66 elongated compressed
characters (8.33 characters per inch) on the PRU7070/7071 and 66 or 110 charac-
ters on the PRU7075/7076.
Elongated printing is software selectable by means of the Set Double-Width Printing
attribute. Elongated printing terminates when any new attribute or the Restore
attribute is assigned.
When an elongated character is going to be printed in the last printable column,
the character is printed without the elongation attribute. The print speed is halved
to
50 characters-per-second when this attribute is active.
