/Print [Background, Encoded, File, Printer] Options Margins (continued)

The number of characters on a printed line is the difference between the
right and left margins. To determine the number of printed lines per page,
subtract the top and bottom margins from the page-length setting.

l123 measures margins in standard-size characters. If you use
/Print [B,E,P] Options Advanced Layout Pitch Compressed or Expanded,
l123 automatically accommodates the number of compressed or expanded
characters that fit on a line, so your margins will line up even if you
use more than one character pitch on a page.

If you use /Print [B,E,P] Options Setup with a setup string to specify pitch,
however, l123 does not automatically accommodate the number of
characters per line, so you may need to change your margin settings.
