Value and behavior

  • Specify the number of columns as an integer within the range of 1-10.

Explanation

  • In order to specify the number of images to combine vertically (number of rows), use the "multirows" printing option or the "I. Multipages Per Sheet: No. of Rows" setting on the RTIFF Menu.

  • If multiple-image printing is specified, images are printed even if the number of images received is less than the specified number, when either of the following occurs:

    • An ESC sequence command such as the Printer Language switch command is received.

    • When the machine is connected via a network and an "EOF" is received.

    • When the machine is connected via a parallel connection and [Form Feed] is pressed while the machine is "offline".

  • When this printing option is specified, the setting for "H. Multipages Per Sheet: No. of Col." on the RTIFF Menu is ignored.

  • If "On" is selected for "U. Auto Paper Select" on the RTIFF Menu and neither the "tray" nor "paper" printing option is specified, this printing option is ignored.

  • If the "autopaper" printing option is specified, this printing option is ignored.
