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.
