IBM 4610-TM6 - SureMark Printer TM6 Two-color Thermal Transfer User Manual

v Font C, starting with level 38 micro code is 8 dots (wide) and 20 dots (high) with
the last 2-dot row used for descenders (1.0-mm × 2.5-mm character height
including descenders, 1.0 mm × 2.25 mm excluding descenders).
The
number of characters printed per inch depends on the character size, the
inter-character spacing, and the chosen font. For example:
v 17 cpi ⇒ 10-dot wide character + 2-dot space (font A) ⇒ 48 characters per line
v 15 cpi ⇒ 10-dot wide character + 3-dot space (font A) ⇒ 44 characters per line
v 12 cpi ⇒ 12-dot wide character + 5-dot space (font B) ⇒ 34 characters per line
v 20 cpi ⇒ 8-dot wide character + 2-dot space (font C) ⇒ 57 characters per line
You
can choose the character size of four user-defined character sets (code pages)
or two proportional fonts. The parameter ranges for user-defined character sets are:
v 8 ≤ dot width ≤ 16
v 16 ≤ dot height ≤ 32 (must be a multiple of 2)
The
parameter ranges for characters in proportional fonts are:
v 8 ≤ dot width ≤ 32
v 8 ≤ dot height ≤ 32
Notes:
1. Any of the thermal printing fonts can be scaled up to eight times the defined
width and eight times the defined height. The scaling factor for the width does
not have to equal the scaling factor for the height. For example, you could
specify twice the width and five times the height.
2. For paper that has a width of 80 mm, the cash receipt print line is 72 mm (2.83
in.) long. There are 576 dots per line and 203 dots per inch.
Impact printing fonts (Models TI1, TI2, TI3, TI4, TI8, TG3, and TG4)
The resident character set has a font of 7 half-dots (wide) × 9 dots (high). There are
no descenders.
v Font A prints 150 half-dots per inch = resident character size is 1.2 mm × 2 mm.
v Font B prints 120 half-dots per inch = resident character size is 1.5 mm × 2 mm.
The
number of characters printed per inch depends on the character size, the
inter-character spacing, and the chosen font. For example:
v 17 cpi ⇒ font A with 7 half-dot-wide character + 2 half-dot space ⇒ 52
characters per line
v 15 cpi ⇒ font A with 7 half-dot-wide character + 3 half-dot space ⇒ 47
characters per line
v 12 cpi ⇒ font B with 7 half-dot-wide character + 3 half-dot space ⇒ 37
characters per line
You
can choose the character size of the two user-defined character sets (code
pages) within the following parameters:
v 4 ≤ half-dot width ≤ 16
v 4 ≤ dot height ≤ 16
Notes:
1. Any of the impact printing fonts can be printed double-wide, double-high, or both
double-wide and double-high unless the dot height is more than 9. With Models
TI1 and TI2, you cannot print the character double-high if its dot height is more
than 9. For better print quality with double-high characters, set the printer to
unidirectional print mode. (See “Set or cancel unidirectional printing” on page
130.)
