Epson ActionPrinter Manuel D’Utilisation

For all of the eight built-in fonts, you can choose character spacing

of 

10, 12, 15, 

17, or 20 cpi (characters per inch), or proportional

spacing using the DIP switches or software commands.

In the 10, 12, 15, 

17, 

and 20 cpi modes, each character gets 

an

equal amount of space. In proportional mode, the spacing varies

from character to character. A narrow letter like the lowercase i

receives less space than the uppercase W.
The printout below compares the different types of spacing:
