Description At the next print position n spaces without carriage return (CR) are inserted. As soon as this command is received, all data in the buffer are printed. This command is igno- red when justification is activated. If the next print position is on or beyond the right margin, a line feed is carried out and printing starts at the left margin.

On receipt of this sequence the printer carries out n line feeds corresponding to the current line spacing. A carriage return (CR) is not carried out. As soon as this com- mand is received, all data in the buffer are printed.
