PG, Advance Full Page

This HP-GL/2 command is ignored by the printer since it could cause undesirable results when importing plots. A page eject can be accomplished only from the PCL printer language mode.

The following PCL commands cause a conditional page eject, meaning that a page is ejected if there is any printable data in the print buffer:

zECE Reset

zUEL (Universal Exit Language)

zFlush All Pages

zPage Length

zPage Size

zOrientation

zPaper Source

When a page is ejected using one of the above commands, the PCL cursor position is set to the top of form on the new page. (The Top of Form is 3/4 of a line below the top margin.)

An alternative method of ejecting a page from PCL is the Form Feed control code. A Form Feed causes an unconditional page eject and advances the current active cursor position to the top of form on the next page. The horizontal cursor position remains the same as before the page eject.

Note

The HP-GL/2 pen position is not affected by a Form Feed; it occupies

 

the same position on the next page.
