Appendix 3: Printable Line Speeds

The following table shows the line speed at which good printing will be obtained for each raster type and
print head model at ideal pitch:
7 Dot Standard Speed
12 Dot Standard Speed
24 Dot Standard Speed
The line speeds shown above can be adjusted if printing at more than ideal pitch, i.e. double or treble
pitch (see "Appendix 1: Installation and Setting Up").
NOTE: Print quality will be impaired if printing takes place at anything other than ideal pitch.

Ideal Pitch

Otherwise known as single pitch, this is dependent on the raster (i.e. printer type) being used. Printers
with the faster raster has an increased pitch capacity because the overall character height is larger. This
helps to form "square" (more precise and uniform) characters.

Double Pitch

Twice the ideal pitch. Print height may need to be increased to maintain character proportion.

Triple Pitch

Three times the ideal pitch. Print height may need to be increased to maintain character proportion.
