RE: printing 15 cpi on hp4 with remote ip connectivity

You need to change the WSCST for 15CPI.  You can change the font using an
escape sequence representing the new font, pitch/pointsize needed.  This
would be your best bet.

Try adding these CPICOR lines below the lines that specify CPI=12.  It
should be a group that is simiar looking to this set of data.

     :CPICOR                                                       
       CPI=15                                                      
       ASCIIFNT=  255                                              
       FNTWTH=   84                                                
       FNTATR=    1                                                
       DATA ='1B2873307031352E3068307330623430393954'X. 

This will tell your printer when it sees 15CPI to use a couriour font with a
pitch of 15.  You can change the pitch to fine tune it if you need by
changing this portion:
31352E30

This represents a pitch of 15.0  (31 = 1, 35=5, 2E=.,30=0)
So, if you wanted to change it to a pitch of 14.5, you would use,
31342E35

Good luck!
