CHAPTER 4 CONTROL PANEL s About Line Settings Setting the number of lines/page automatically sets the line spacing or line feed pitch. If the paper size is changed, the number of lines/page changes accordingly. The new setting is calculated with the following expression and the remainder, if any, is ignored. However, the line feed pitch and the top and bottom margins remain effective. Page Length - (Top Margin + Bottom Margin) # of Lines/Page = Line Feed Pitch [Vertical Motion Index (VMI)] The setting of lines/page is subject to the current paper size and orientation. For example, when letter-sized paper is used, the printer can print 60 lines per page in portrait orientation. If the orientation is changed, the line settings are restored to the factory settings in that orientation. The following tables show the factory settings in each emulation mode. In HP Mode Orientation Size Portrait Letter 60 lines A4 64 lines Legal 78 lines Landscape 45 lines 43 lines 45 lines In Non-HP Modes Orientation Size Portrait Letter 62 lines A4 66 lines Legal 80 lines Landscape 47 lines 45 lines 47 lines  Note When you use application software in the non-HP modes, the recommended settings are as follows: • Left margin = column 0 • Right margin = Max. value • Auto MASK ON GRAPHICS MODE  Note The settings in this mode menu are effective only in the HP-GL mode. They do not appear in any other emulation modes. Since the HP-GL emulation mode is for a plotter, you can select the plotter pens, the pen size and percentage of gray in this mode menu. 4-25
