(10) ESC C + n (for setting a form length)
ESC C + n
(n

0), ESC C +
[O]H
+ m (for setting form length)
The “ESC C + n” codes specifies the form length which is determined by the
number of lines (n: 1
s
(n)n
$
127 where the value of “n” is a positive numb-
er and must not exceed 127 lines). In other words, the maximum form length is
127 lines. The amount of line spacing when this code is input is a predeter-
mined numerical value by ESC A+ n. When the form length is not programmed
by the ESC C + n code, one page is assumed as 66 lines with the DIP switch
pin 1-2 on the control circuit board set in the OFF position, or 72 lines with the
DIP switch pin 1-2 set in the ON position. The “ESC C +
[O]H
+ m” code speci-
fies the absolute quantity of form length in units of inches
(1
d
(m)o
5
22).
Therefore, even if the amount of line spacing is changed on the page, the abso-
lute quantity of form length remains unchanged
“m”
denotes the form length in
inches.
NOTES: 1. With the ESC + n code, the form length can be defined by the
number of lines using the amount of line spacing set by the ESC A
+ n code. With the ESC C +
[O]H
+ m code, the form length can be
defined as an absolute quantity in unit of inches.
2. Input of “ESC C” code cancels the
VT
set by “ESC 6” and the
skipover perforation set by “ESC N’.
3.
< 0 > H denotes hexadecimal “00”.
(1 1) ESC N + n (n
#
0) (for setting skip-over perforation)
The ESC N + n code is used to set the skip-over perforation, which specifies the
number of lines
“r-r”
to be skipped at the bottom of a page (n: 1
5
(n)o
5
127
where the value of n is a positive number).
For example, if the last three lines of a page is to be skipped, the value of n
must be entered as “3”. Note that the value of n cannot be set greater than the
form length specified by the ESC C + n code.
When the current form length is changed by the input of the ESC C + n or ESC
C +
<O>H
+ m code again, the amount of skip-over perforation previously set is
cancelled. In this case, therefore, the ESC N + n code must be input again to
set the amount of skip-over perforation. When the amount of skip-over perfora-
tion is not set by the ESC N + n code or the DIP switch pin 2-4 on the control
circuit board is OFF, skip-over perforation for 1 inch is executed.
