See The Multi-Font Module in Chapter 5. For each of the two Letter Quality fonts, you can choose a fixed character pitch of 10, 12, 15, 17, or 20 characters per inch (cpi) or proportional spacing. However, high-speed draft and normal draft fonts cannot be combined with proportional spacing. Draft overrides proportional. For the fixed pitch settings (10, 12, 15, 17, and 20 cpi), each character is given an equal amount of space. For proportional spacing, character width varies from one character to the next. For example, a narrow letter like i receives less space than a wide letter like W. 3-24 Using the Printer
