Sets form length to an integer number of inches n. n must be from 1 to

151.(See Note below.) The default is 11 in. The current form position becomes the top of form when the printer receives this command.

If the bottom margin was previously set by the Skip Over Perforation command (ESC N), the Length of Form in Inches command cancels the bottom margin setting. Therefore, to re-establish the bottom margin after Length of Form in Inches is set, send another Skip Over Perforation command.

Note: The IBM Proprinter allows a form length range of 1 < n < 180 in. The IBM emulation in the 4100 printer allows a range of 1 < n < 151 in. An out of range value is ignored.

Example

REM SET FORM LENGTH TO 10 LINES

LPRINT CHR$(27);"C";CHR$(10);
