4.3.4 Text length and the bottom margin
By default, the LaserPrinter 4111automaticallygives you top and bottom
marginsof thesame size.So youonly needto send theText Length command
when you want different top and bottom margins.
Ifyou want adifferent bottom margin, first decide how many text lines will
produce the margin you want. Check that they won’t produce abottom
margin lower than the page length. Then send the following Text Length
command, entering for }7your desired number of lines:
<ESC> &tn F
The Page Length, Top Margin and Text Length commands therefore work
together to setthe bottom margin:
bottom margin =page length–(top margin +text length).
The bottom margin iscalled the “perforation region” with printers that use
continuousforms. You normally want to skip the perforations between the
continuous pages, but sometimes you don’t (for example when you print
labels).
Though you likelywon’t often want to do it, the Star LaserPrinter 4111will
letyou completelyignore thebottommargin too. Ifyou chooseto printbelow
the bottommargin, remember that you might lose words or graphics in the
unprintableregion at the edge of the page. The command looks like this:
<ESC> &?n L
Ifyou want to allow printing below the bottom margin, for nenter O(zero).
But if you want to forbid printing below the margin, which is the default,
enter 1(one).
