Software Command Syntax

ESC d n1

Make n Linefeeds

1B 64 n1

hex

27 100 n1

decimal

 

Executes the number of linefeeds as defined by variable n1. The length of each line feed is determined by the default value for selected font or the line spacing setting specified by n13, whichever is greater (refer to parameter Line Spacing on page 86).

If an <LF> has not yet been sent to convert the text buffer to the line buffer, the lines printed by <ESC>d are copies of that line. Following this, the print position is returned to the beginning of the line.

FF

 

Form Feed

0C

hex

12

decimal

 

Prints data from the text buffer and feeds the paper to the top of the next page.

In fixed document length mode (n36 = 0) this command prints data in the text buffer and feeds the paper to the top of next page.

In variable document length modem, <FF> advances to the minimum page length as specified by n37 and n38. If the printout already is longer than the minimum page length, <FF> does not feed any additional paper.

In black-mark mode, the <FF> command looks for a black mark, see <ESC>Z.

If Auto Cut (n34) is set to 1 (see Auto Cut after FF on page 88), FF effects form-feed, cut, and eject.

Note • Use Parameters n37 and n38 — Page Length Minimum on page 104 to define page length.

HT

 

Horizontal Tabulation

09

hex

9

decimal

 

Shifts the current print position to the next Tab position.

Set tab positions with parameters n15 to n30. Refer to Tab Stop on page 87.
