for the code to go on-lineagain. CHR$( 19) is the code to turn SR-IO/l5 off-line; CHR$( 17) returns SR-lo/15 to on-line status.
nPrinting to the bottom of the sheet
Sometimes when you are using sprocket paper you may want to print near the bottom of the last sheet. The paper-out detector usually stops SR-lo/15 when you are about 3 inches from the bottom of the sheet. This is to notify you if you are running out of continuous paper.
SR-lo/15 has the ability to print right to the bottom of the sheet. You can disable the paper-out detector so that it doesn’t stop the printer. This will allow you to print to the end of the sheet, and even beyond if you are not careful. The codes to control the paper-out detector, along with the other codes that we have just learned are in the following table.
