Epson FX Series

Intermediate positions
FX characters are designed to be five or fewer columns wide. Leav-
ing the sixth column blank allows for space between letters. Figure 3-3
shows the 6 main columns, numbered 1, 3, 5, etc.
Figure 3-3. Main columns
Because the use of 5 dots does not give quite enough detail for the
highest quality characters, an FX prints some dots half way between
the main columns in the 6-dot-wide matrix. This enhancement results
in a matrix grid that is actually 11 dots wide-6 main columns with 5
intermediate columns. You can count the 11 positions on the grid
shown as Figure 3-4.

The dots printed in intermediate column positions would overlap with
those in the main columns if they were printed in the same row.
