Autogap Set To Single; Selecting Or Locking A Font Or Pitch - Lexmark Forms Printer 4227 Plus User Manual

AutoGap Set to Single

When AutoGap is set to Single, the printer sets the gap between the printhead and the
paper only once. This should only be used when printing on several cut sheets of the
same thickness while using the Auto Sheet Feeder. The printer adjusts the printhead to
the paper's thickness when you turn the printer on or when the paper select lever is
changed.
There are two Single AutoGap options:
• Open (factory default) means that the printhead moves out of the way as each
sheet of paper is loaded. This setting reduces paper jams.
• Fixed means that once the gap is set, the printhead does not move.

Selecting or Locking a Font or Pitch

When you select a temporary font or pitch, the printer uses it unless the application
software specifies a different one. The printer reverts to the default font/pitch when
the printer is initialized or when you turn the power off.
If a font or pitch is locked, the printer uses the selected font/pitch regardless of the
font/pitch selection in the application software. The printer reverts to the default font/
pitch when you turn the power off.
