Tapes
The optional 4 mm cartridge tape drive uses 5 GB or 8 GB tapes.
The 1/4-inch QIC tape drive uses quarter-inch stream cartridge
tapes. The tape data capacity should be 320/525 MB. Tape
density is critical. The QIC drive can read low density tapes, but
to write reliably requires tape with 21,000 Flux Transitions Per
Inch (FTPI). The FTPI figure is usually listed on the cartridge.

Fonts
Data can be printed on DocuPrint printers in many sizes and
type styles called fonts. A font is a character set which has
unique characteristics, such as type style, size, weight,
orientation (portrait, landscape, inverse portrait, and inverse
landscape), character spacing (fixed and proportional), line
spacing, and postures (Roman, italic, and so forth).
