FORM LENGTH
ESC C Length of Form in Lines
ASCII:
ESC C (n)
Control:
CTRL
[C (n)
Decimal:
27 67 (n)
Hexadecimal:
1B 43 (n)
Sets form length to n number of lines. n must be from 1 to 255. The
default setting is 66 lines. The current form position becomes the top of
form when the printer receives this command.
If the bottom margin was previously set by the Skip Over Perforation
command (ESC N), the Length of Form in Lines command cancels the
bottom margin setting. Therefore, to re-establish the bottom margin after
the Length of Form in Lines command is set, send another Skip Over
Perforation command.
Form length is stored as an absolute length equal to the line spacing
multiplied by the specified number of lines. That form length remains in
effect even if the line spacing is changed.
Example
REM SET FORM LENGTH TO 50 LINES
LPRINT CHR$(27);"C";CHR$(50);
