In this test, all characters are printed in the default font and pitch (as determined by the printer control mode that has been selected) in a repeating pattern. ROM Read Only Memory. You cannot modify this printer memory. When the printer is turned off, ROM memory remains intact. In this printer, the default settings and the resident fonts are stored in ROM. Roman A font based on the characters used by the Romans, with serifs and long strokes. By extension, an upright (nonitalic) font. S Sans Serif font A font in which the characters do not have serifs as embellishments. The Sans Serif font is available in Epson LQ mode only. It can be printed either in fixed pitch or proportionally spaced. Serif Short lines crossing and embellishing the ends of a letter's main strokes. Serif font A font in which the letters have serifs as embellishments. Courier and Prestige are serif fonts. Smoothing mode A printer mode in which the printer enhances the horizontal resolution from 360 dpi to 720 dpi. This function is active when FUNCTION 6 is ON. Subscript One or more characters printed one-half line below the normal printing line. See also Superscript. Superscript One or more characters printed one-half line above the normal printing line. See also Subscript. T Text scale mode The mode that reduces the line spacing by a factor of 14/15 (from 62 lines per page to 66 lines per page if line spacing is set to 6 lines per inch). This provides compatibility with software that assumes 66 lines will fit on each page. TrueType font The scalable font technology built into Microsoft Windows 3.1.
