Description
Point size (a measurement for type height, 1 point
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.
Most software applications override this setting. If
your application does not, the printer assumes the
default setting here.
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.
