2. Characteristics The MX-80 Type II and MX-80 F/T Type II have been designed as a printer with versatile functions to meet a wide range of applications from small business to home uses and even for hobbies. The following is a brief summary of their major characteristics. (1) Both text printing for general data processing and Bit Image printing for graphic data processing are freely available. In the Bit Image printing, both normal density (480 dots/line in horizontal direction) and dual density (960 dots/line in horizontal direction) modes are selectable under software control. (2) Wide variation of printing width and character size (a) 40 characters/line (enlarged character) (b) 66 characters/line (enlarged-condensed character) (c) 80 characters/line (normal character) (d) 132 characters/line (condensed character) (e) Programmable column length (3) Versatile functions to meet various business applications (a) Top of Form - page length setting in line or inch units is possible, with initial setting to 11 or 12 inches. (b) Skip-over perforation - automatic skip-over function selectable by DIP switch setting or variable by software. (c) Programmable line spacing. (d) Vertical tabulation and horizontal tabulation (e) Buzzer, printer select/deselect function. (4) High throughput by bidirectional printing with logic seeking capability. (5) Easy-to-replace "throwaway" print head. The print head has a life expectancy of approx. 100 x 106 characters. (6) 8 international character sets are selectable by DIP switch setting or software. (7) Complete with standard equipment including paper end detector, custom cartridge ribbon, etc. -2-
