- Index
Specifies the default font pitch if the font is scalable and of fixed-pitch. You can select from 0.44 to
99.99 cpi (characters per inch), in 0.01-cpi increments. This item may not appear depending on the
Font Source or Font Number settings.
Height
Specifies the default font height if the font is scalable and proportional. You can select from 4.00 to
999.75 points, in 0.25-point increments. This item may not appear depending on the Font Source
or Font Number settings.
SymSet
Selects the default symbol set. If the font you selected in Font Source and Font Number is not available
in the new SymSet setting, the Font Source and the Font Number settings are automatically replaced
with the default value, IBM-US.
Form
Selects the number of lines for the selected paper size and orientation. This also causes a line spacing
(VMI) change, and the new VMI value is stored in the printer. This means that later changes in the
Page Size or Orientation settings cause changes in the Form value, based on the stored VMI.
CR Function, LF Function
These functions are included for users of particular operating systems, such as UNIX.
Tray Assign
Changes the assignment for the paper source select command. When 4 is selected, the commands
are set as compatible with the HP LaserJet 4. When 4K is selected, the commands are set as compatible
with the HP LaserJet 4000, 5000, and 8000. When 5S is selected, the commands are set as compatible
with the HP LaserJet 5S.
