- <li>The overall width (X-direction) of the print depends on the <code class="highlighter-rouge">Fast Speed Length</code> and <code class="highlighter-rouge">Slow Speed Length</code> settings plus 5 mm for the priming line. The length (Y-direction) depends on the K-factor Settings and <code class="highlighter-rouge">Line Spacing</code>.</li>

<li><code class="highlighter-rouge">Start</code> and <code class="highlighter-rouge">End Value</code> for the K-factor determines the range that the test pattern will cover. For example a <code class="highlighter-rouge">Start Value</code> of 50 and an <code class="highlighter-rouge">End Value</code> of 150 will test a range of 100.</li>
<li>The <code class="highlighter-rouge">K-factor Stepping</code> determines how many test lines are printed for the above range. For example, a Stepping of 10 and a range of 100 results in 10 test lines. A stepping of 3 would not work in this example as 100 cannot be exactly divided by 3. The script will throw an error message if an exact division is not possible. In this case either the range or the stepping needs to be adjusted.</li>
<li>The <code class="highlighter-rouge">Alternate Pattern</code> has a second line of <code class="highlighter-rouge">Fast Printing Speed</code> to test 0 to <code class="highlighter-rouge">Fast Printing Speed</code> and back to 0 conditions. Best used with an increased <code class="highlighter-rouge">Test Line Spacing</code> and reduced K-factor range.</li>
