are printed at 8 lpi until a new line spacing is selected or the

Comment When the 7/72-inch line spacing control code is received, all
lines are printed at the 7/72-inch line spacing until a new line
spacing is selected or the printer is reset. The control code line
spacing selection overrides the control panel line spacing
setting, and the message display reflects the line spacing as
10.3lines per inch.

other print attributes such as Elongated (Double High),
Superscript, or Subscript; overlapping lines may occur. Printing
at different horizontal and vertical densities do not overlap.
