Command:

Form Feed (FF)

 

Format:

0C

 

Printers:

3812, 4214, 5219, 5224, 5225, 5256

 

Action:

Moves the current print position to the top line of the

 

next logical page. The print position is restored to the

 

current indent level, or to the left margin if there is no

 

indent.

 

 

Most IBM host system print spoolers use the Form Feed

 

character to delimit and count pages. For this reason,

 

only Form Feed should be used to move to a new page.

 

Vertical movement commands other than Form Feed

 

should not be used to move to a new page.

 

IBMEMUL:

The PFS FF> is sent to the printer. Normally this PFS

 

sends a Form Feed character to the printer.

 

 

Support for source paper drawer selection on some target

 

printers requires that the PFS FF> be empty. See Page

 

Presentation Media (PPM) for more information.

275EMUL:

Action:

the current line.

 

 

On the 3812 and 5219, the current print position is

margin.
