Description When the printer receives this code, it prints the data in the print buffer, then advances the paper from the current pritn position to the top-of-form position on the next page.

Cut sheet:

Forms are ejected. The first print position on the following paper is the first (top) physi- cally possible position.

Fanfold paper:

The paper is moved by the form length given before. The first print position on the follow- ing paper is the first (top) physically possible position.

The FF code can also give a carriage return if automatic carriage return is selected (refer to Operator’s Manual). The next print is started in the column following the print end of the last print-out if no CR is transmitted.

After switching on the printer the default form length is set to 12 inches (72 lines) per page (Europe 12"; USA 11").
