User`s manual

Both 10 and 12 cpi printing and proportional spacing can be
reduced to about 60 percent of their normal width using the
condensed mode. This mode is particularly useful for printing wide
spreadsheets because condensed 12 cpi printing allows you to print
up to 160 characters on an 8-inch line.
The condensed mode can be selected with a software command, or
by using SelecType (See Chapter 3). Even if you turn the condensed
mode on with SelecType, you can still turn it off with a software
command.
Condensed 10 cpi givea you rany characters on (L line.
Coldeneed 12 cpi gives even aore,
Widening or narrowing the characters also widens or narrows the
spaces between words. Because word processors usually create a left
margin by printing spaces, you may need to change the left margin
and the number of characters on a line to keep the margins correct if
you change character widths.
Note: You cannot condense 15 cpi.
High-speed draft temporarily switches to normal draft speed
when you select condensed printing.
Special Effects and Emphasis
The printer offers two ways of emphasizing text and also allows you
to use underlining, superscripts, subscripts, and italics. You can
directly control these features using software commands. Many
application programs can also produce some of these effects. See
your application program manual for details.
