I just tried printing numbers of different lengths using different FIX settings on a physical 19C, and the print head always traverses the entire line every time. Therefore FIX 0 takes just as long to print as FIX 9. This behavior is different from the HP-97 whose printhead only moves as far across the paper as needed, making FIX 0 print faster than FIX 9.
