"A) Report length"
Global change of report length:
From this menu, you can change the length of all of the reports.
Your choices are:
1 = Choose 8 1/2 by 11"
2 = Choose 8 1/2 by 14"
3 = Choose 'A4' size, 210 by 297 mm
4 = Create your own length
5 = Select your width
Note on default calculations:
==== Length ====
6 lines per inch, minus 8 for bottom border; needed by lasers
8 1/2 by 11", ie (11 * 6) - 8 = 58 lines
8 1/2 by 14", ie (14 * 6) - 8 = 76 lines
'A4' size, 210 by 297 mm, ie (11.75" * 6) - 8 = 62.5
rounded to 62 lines
==== Width ====
8 1/2 by 11", ie 75 characters
8 1/2 by 14", ie 75 characters
'A4' size, 210 by 297 mm, ie 72 characters
