About Line Settings
Setting the number of lines/page automatically sets the line spacing or line
feed pitch. If the paper size is changed, the number of lines/page changes
accordingly. The new setting is calculated with the following expression
and the remainder, if any, is ignored. However, the line feed pitch and the
top and bottom margins remain effective.
# of Lines/Page =
The setting of lines/page is subject to the current paper size and orientation.
For example, when letter-sized paper is used, the printer can print 60 lines
per page in portrait orientation. If the orientation is changed, the line
settings are restored to the factory settings in that orientation.
The following tables show the factory settings in each emulation mode.

The settings in this mode menu are effective only in the HP-GL mode. They
do not appear in any other emulation modes.
Since the HP-GL emulation mode is for a plotter, you can select the plotter
pens, the pen size and percentage of gray in this mode menu.
