5.6.3 Print Width
The Print Width setting is the horizontal distance between the drops in the message
characters. To maintain good print quality, the vertical distance between drops in the
message must be equal to the horizontal distance between drops. You can use the Print
Width option to adjust the horizontal distance between drops in the message characters.
Figure 79. Distance between drops in a message
In Figure 79(a) the letter “H” is printed at an ideal Print Width—the horizontal spacing (X1)
is equal to the vertical spacing (Y). In Figure 79(b), the Print Width is larger than the ideal
Print Width—the horizontal spacing (X2) is larger than the vertical spacing (Y).
You can apply the Print Width value and test the result while you are printing.
NOTE: When you change the value, the change applies only to the selected message. You
can use a different value for each message.
The values that are allowed depend on the message style and other factors.
