HMI # of 1/120" incrs. 1b 26 6b # 48 (68)
+-------------+--------------------+---------------------------------------+
The Horizontal Motion Index (HMI) designates the distance between
columns in 1/120 " increments. When fixed pitch fonts are selected,
all printable characters, including the space & backspace, are
affected by HMI. When proportional fonts are selected, the HMI
affects only the control code space character. # in the sequence is
derived from the following formula:
Horizontal printable area
--------------------------- * 120 = #
Desired chars per line

Vertical line spacing
+-------------T--------------------T---------------------------------------+
VMI # of 1/48" incrs. 1b 26 6c # 43 (63)
+-------------+--------------------+---------------------------------------+
The Verical Motion Index (VMI) designates the distance between rows
in 1/48" increments (the vertical distance the cursor will move for
a linefeed operation). This command affects the linefeed and half
linefeed spacing. The factory default VMI is 8, which corresponds
to 6 lines per inch. # in the sequence is derived from the following
formula:
Vertical printable area
-------------------------- * 48 = #
Desired lines per page
