Vertical Compression of Text (3812/5219 Emulation Only)
There is a possibility in the protocol converter to compress text vertically. The function
is useful for example when an A4 document prints all 70 lines in 6 lpi that theoretically
fits into one page and, due to the unprintable area most laser printers have, only 68
lines can be printed. By reducing the distance between each line with only 3%, all 70
lines can be printed one page.
The function is controlled with parameter #057 (Vertical Compress measured in %).
Internal printouts like the Parameter List and EBCDIC-To-ASCII Translation Table
are not affected by the Vertical Compression parameters.
Notes: 1. Parameter #057 is used for vertical compression of text.
2. Function #205 saves the setting permanently.
3. Extended Emulation Mode has to be active, page 33.
Result: The distance between each line is reduced by 3%.
