Default Settings

Default settings refer to settings programmed into a printer at the factory

or settings selected using the control panel. The term default simply means

that the printer uses these settings unless printer commands are used to

select other settings.

Each time a job is printed, some of the printer's feature settings might be

changed from their default values to produce the desired printed output

for that job.

There are ten default fonts in TFORM. These default characteristic values

are shown in Table H-2.
