The following sections describe the syntax of the command parameters and explain their options.

PCC ADVTAPE

Specifies whether or not the carriage control advances to a new page when two successive channel skip parameters are issued with no intervening print.

For example, on most printers, the actions PSK1 (Print and Skip to Channel 1) followed by SK1N (Skip to Channel 1, Do Not Print) cause a blank page to be output. However, on a 1403 printer, these actions do not produce a blank page.
