Resolution (OpenPrint)
This parameter defines the default print resolution. This selection is used
when either the print resolution is not defined by the data stream or if the print
resolution defined by the data stream is not supported.
The following resolutions are available on OpenPrint P8000 Standard:
•
120x144 DPI (factory default)
•
90 x 96 DPI
The following resolutions are available on OpenPrint P8000 HD:
•
180x180 DPI (factory default)
•
180x90 DPI
•

Paper Size (OpenPrint)
This parameter allows selection of available paper sizes. Available options
include:
•
Custom. Sets a user-defined paper size.
•
Width. Defines the paper width. The range is 1" to 15" in 0.1 inch
increments. The default is 13.6 inches.
•
Length. Defines the paper length. The default is 11 inches. Three
length options are available:
Inches. Defines the length in inches. The range is 1" to 24" in 0.1
inch increments.
1/6 Inch Lines. Defines the length in 1/6 inch lines. The range is 6
to 144 lines.
1/8 Inch Lines. Defines the length in 1/8 inch lines. The range is 8
to 192 lines.
To set a custom length, use the appropriate menu that allows for selection of
the exact paper length to avoid loss of top-of-form (i.e., if using a 12" paper,
select either the "Inches" menu set to 12" or the "1/6 Inch Lines" menu set to
72. However, if using a 11 2/3 inch paper length, the "1/6 Inch Lines" menu
must be used (set to 70) since that is exactly 11 2/3 inches. If the "Inches"
menu is used, the closest values would be 11.6 or 11.7 inches which are not
exact.
The printer will indicate which of the three length menus was used by showing
that submenu first when entering the "Length" menu. The configuration
printout will also show the length menu used.
