Primary Char. Set

You can select one of 92 pre-defined character sets by ID (although character
sets range from 0 - 109, not all sets are available on the LJ500 printer), or you
can select pitch, symbol set, and typeface individually. If the combination you
choose matches one of the 92 predefined sets, the ID submenu will reflect
that selection. If not, the ID menu will display

xx

to indicate that the current

character set does not match a pre-defined set. Set 0 is the default, and its
attributes are 10 cpi, Data Processing typeface, and Roman 8 symbol set.

Second Char. Set

Your printer can store an additional character set. To toggle between them,
send the Shift In (Decimal 15, to select the Primary character set) or Shift Out
(Decimal 14, to select the Secondary character set).

Page Length Rep.

Inches/Page

(default). All page length calculations are based on the

inches displayed on the panel.

Lines/Page

. All changes in LPI or density will be changed accordingly.

The length of the page is the number of lines per inch, or lpi.

For example, if the form in use is 82 lines at 6 lpi, the page is physically
13.67 inches. Since 13.67 inches is not selectable from the Length in
Inches menu, change the representation to lines, then set the number of
lines to 82. The inches menu will display 13.6 inches although the printer
internally keeps the exact form length of 13.67 inches.

Max Line Width

Set the maximum line width at 13.2 inches (default) or 13.6 inches.

Face CPI Delay

Allows the combination of different font densities on the same line.

Enable

(default). Different font densities can be used on the same line.

Disable

. Only the same font densities are allowed on the same line.

Graphics Density

Graphics can be printed in 60 DPI (default) or 70 DPI.

Perforation Skip

Disable

(default). Allows printing on page perforation.

Enable

. You may set up a skip-over margin. For example, a skip-over

margin of one inch creates a one inch margin at the bottom of the page.
