ABSTRACT:
For accurate completion of pre-printed forms on computer systems having printers with different characters-per-inch (CPI) printing capabilities, the desired data print locations of blank fields along respective print lines of a form are defined independently of CPI density, as distances from a reference location on the form. The distances are determined by positioning a user-selected reference mark on a print carrier (of a printer) at the beginning of each field. Data is then accurately printed in each field at a selected CPI density by converting the distances to printable character locations at the selected density and printing corresponding data at each of the determined locations.
