I cannot seem to get my HP9000dn to give me 9 lines per inch. The two most relevant commands I've tried are:

Setting the line spacing to 9 lines per inch:
Ec&l9D 027 038 108 057 068
This is ignored by the printer (9 is invalid?).

Setting the vertical motion index to 5
Ec&l5C 027 038 108 053 067
This gives me more like 10 or 11 lines per inch, and setting it to 6 gives me about 8 lines per inch.

Is it possible to set the VMI to fractions such as 5.75??

Advice grately apprecitaed!

 
Set the VMI to 5.3333 and you should have 9 lpi

<esc>&l5.3333C

Four decimal points are supported AFAIK
