Print and feed paper

ASCII	ESC J n
Hexadecimal	1B 4A n
Decimal	27 74 n
Value of n:	Receipt - n/203 inch
	Slip -	n/144 inch
Range of n:	0–255

Prints one line from the buffer and feeds the paper.

On the receipt station, the line height equals the character height when n is too small. This does not apply to the slip station. Use n = 0 to print a line without feeding the paper. This allows the printer to print on the last line of the slip (at

0.59inch from the trailing edge) and still retain the slip in the feed rollers for reverse feeding the paper back out of the slip station.
