Epson LX-810 User Manual

Enhancing Your Printing
Widening or narrowing the characters also widens or narrows the
space between words and letters. Because word processors usually
create a left margin by printing spaces, you may need to change
the left margin and the number of characters on a line to keep the
margins correct if you change character widths.
Special effects and emphasis
The printer offers two ways of emphasizing text and also allows
you to use underlining, superscripts, subscripts, and italics. These
features can be controlled directly by software commands. Many
application programs can also produce these effects if they are
properly installed. Refer to your application program manual for
details.
^ Emphasized and double-strike printing
Emphasized and double-strike printing can give text added
— distinction. In emphasized mode, each character is printed twice as
m the print head moves across the paper, with the second character
printed slightly to the right of the first. This process produces
darker, more fully formed characters.
In double-strike mode, the print head goes over each line twice,
making the text bolder. For even greater prominence, you can
combine emphasized and double-strike modes.
^ This is normal draft printing.
This is emphasized draft printing.
This is double-strike in draft mode.
This is double—strike and emphasized combined.
Note: When using an NLQ font, double-strike mode is ignored
because NLQ characters are already formed by two passes of the
print head.
