Note: High-speed draft is available only with 10 cpi printing (the printer's default pitch). Also, the only print enhancement that can be combined with high-speed draft is underlining. If other enhancements or character sizes are selected, the printer switches to normal draft speed. High-speed draft resumes again after the feature is turned off. Character pitch Your printer's default character pitch is 10 characters per inch (cpi). However, you can select 12 cpi or proportional spacing through your software or by sending printer commands. In 10 and 12 cpi, each character gets an equal amount of space. In proportional mode, however, spacing varies from character to character. A narrow letter like the lowercase i receives less space than the uppercase W. The width assigned to each character in proportional spacing is shown in the proportional width table in Appendix A. The following printout compares the different types of spacing. 10 cpi This is 10 CPI printing. ABCDEFGHIJKLMNOPQRSTUVWXYZ abcdefghijklmnopqrstuvwxyz 12 cpi This is 12 CPI printing.
