9420/9440 Fonts
The 9420/9440 fonts are monospaced (every letter uses the
same amount of space). The following tables show the
characters per inch for parallel and serial characters. If you
rotate the characters (with the top of the characters toward the
left or right side of the stock) you will get the characters per
inch shown in the table labeled "Rotated Characters."
Parallel Characters Rotated Characters
Character Width (in Dots)
The size of the characters is the same on the 9425, 9445,
9465, and 9474 printers. However, there are more dots per
horizontal inch on the 9465. Because of this, parallel
characters on the 9465 only have a higher number of dots per
character (across the character width). The dots per character
is the same for the 9425, 9445, and 9474 printers for all
characters, and for the 9465 printer for serial characters. The
examples below show the difference between parallel
characters and serial characters.
