v Font C is 8 dots (wide) × 16 dots (high) with the last 2-dot row used fordescenders.(1.0 mm × 2.0 mm character height including descenders, 1.0 mm × 1.75 mmexcluding descenders)v Font C, starting with level 38 micro code, is 8 dots (wide) and 20 dots (high) withthe last 2-dot row used for descenders.(1.0 mm × 2.5 mm character height including descenders, 1.0 mm × 2.25 mmexcluding descenders)The number of characters printed per inch depends on the character size, theintercharacter spacing, and the chosen font. For example:v 17 cpi ⇒ 10-dot wide character + 2-dot space (font A) ⇒ 48 characters per linev 15 cpi ⇒ 10-dot wide character + 3-dot space (font A) ⇒ 44 characters per linev 12 cpi ⇒ 12-dot wide character + 5-dot space (font B) ⇒ 34 characters per linev 20 cpi ⇒ 8-dot wide character + 2-dot space (font C) ⇒ 57 characters per lineYou 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 ≤ 16v 16 ≤ dot height ≤ 32 (must be a multiple of 2)The parameter ranges for characters in proportional fonts are:v 8 ≤ dot width ≤ 32v 8 ≤ dot height ≤ 32Notes:1. Any of the thermal printing fonts can be scaled up to eight times the definedwidth and eight times the defined height. The scaling factor for the width doesnot have to equal the scaling factor for the height. For example, you couldspecify 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 (2.83in.) long. There are 576 dots per line and 203 dots per inch.Impact printing fonts (Models TI1, TI2, TI3, TI4, TI8, TI9, TG3, TG4, TG8,and TG9)The resident character set has a font of 7 half-dots (wide) × 9 dots (high). There areno 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, theintercharacter spacing, and the chosen font. For example:v 17 cpi ⇒ font A with 7 half-dot-wide character + 2 half-dot space ⇒ 52characters per linev 15 cpi ⇒ font A with 7 half-dot-wide character + 3 half-dot space ⇒ 47characters per linev 12 cpi ⇒ font B with 7 half-dot-wide character + 3 half-dot space ⇒ 37characters per lineYou can choose the character size of the two user-defined character sets (codepages) within the following parameters:v 4 ≤ half-dot width ≤ 16v 4 ≤ dot height ≤ 16Updated April 2, 2009Appendix C.
