Caution:
The short tear-off feature can only be used with the built-in
tractor feeding system.
Once you use the micro-adjustment feature to set the tear-off position,
the printer remembers that position even after it is turned off.
Selecting Typestyles
Your printer can produce a wide range of typestyles by using different
fonts, pitches, widths, and other print variations. You can select
typestyles in three different ways: by using software commands, by using
SelecType,
or by using other features available on the control panel. This
section describes how to select a typestyle using the
FONT, PITCH,
and
CONDENSED
buttons
on the
control panel.
