Print Size and Character Width To add greater variety to your documents, the printer has two pitches and condensed printing. All can be selected either with SelecType or a software command, and software commands also offer another option: double-wide. Pitches The two pitches are pica and elite. Pica is 10 characters per inch (cpi) and elite is 12 cpi. The printout below shows the difference between the two. P i c a : ABCDEFGHIJKLMnopqrstuvwxyz Elite: ABCDEFGHIJKLMNopqrstuvwxyz Double-wide and condensed In addition to the basic pitches, the printer offers two other modes that change the size of your printing. These modes are double-wide and condensed. The double-wide mode doubles the width of any size of characters. This mode is useful for such purposes as emphasizing headings in reports and making displays, but it is usually not suitable for large amounts of text. Double-wide p i c a Double- - w i d e e l i t e Pica and elite are reduced to about 60% of their normal width with the condensed mode. This mode is particularly useful for printing wide spreadsheets because condensed elite allows you up to 160 characters on an 8-inch line. Printer Features 3-3
