PCL Menu Item Value FORM nnn LINES FNTSRC INTERNAL* DISK FLASH SOFT FONTNUM nnn PTSIZE PITCH nnn.nn nn.nn Description Specifies the number of lines per page the printer prints before it starts a new page. nnn can be from 5 to 128. 60 is the default for Letter-size paper; 64 is the default for A4-size paper. Note: When you change FORM, the printer actually calculates a new LPI (lines-per-inch) value, rather than an absolute value. This means that if you change FORM for one page size, the printer changes the FORM value for other page sizes. For example, if you set FORM to 40 while LETTER is the default PAGESIZE, and you then change PAGESIZE to A4, the new A4 FORM value will be 42, not 40 (the value you set) or 64 (the printer default). To restore the default values, either change FORM back to its original value or enter the FACTORY DEFAULT item on the Test Menu. Specifies which font source the printer checks first for a specified font: v INTERNAL-use the printer's resident fonts first v DISK-use fonts stored on the printer hard drive first v FLASH-use fonts stored on the flash SIMM first v SOFT-use downloaded fonts first Specifies the default font. nnn is the number of the font. The default is 0. To display a list of available fonts and their corresponding numbers, select PRINT PCL FONTS from the Test Menu. See "Printing a List of PCL5e Fonts" on page 29 for more information. Specifies the point size of the default font, if it is an outline font. Valid values are 4 to 999.75. The default is 12. Specifies the pitch to use for the default font, if the font is bitmapped (raster). Valid values are .44 to 99.99. The default is 10. 108 Infoprint 32 and Infoprint 40: User's Guide

PCL Menu Item
Value
Description
FORM
nnn LINES
Specifies the number of lines per page the printer prints
before it starts a new page. nnn can be from 5 to 128. 60 is
the default for Letter-size paper; 64 is the default for A4-size
paper.
Note:
When you change FORM, the printer actually
calculates a new LPI (lines-per-inch) value, rather than an
absolute value. This means that if you change FORM for
one page size, the printer changes the FORM value for
other page sizes. For example, if you set FORM to 40 while
LETTER is the default PAGESIZE, and you then change
PAGESIZE to A4, the new A4 FORM value will be 42, not
40 (the value you set) or 64 (the printer default). To restore
the default values, either change FORM back to its original
value or enter the FACTORY DEFAULT item on the Test
Menu.
