10.8.6 Vertical Motion Index
Sets the vertical spacing between lines of print (the vertical distance CAP will move for a line-
feed in horizontal text path mode and the horizontal distance the CAP will move for a linefeed
in the vertical text path mode.
This command performs the same functions as Line Spacing (Esc & l # D), except the mea-
surement interval is in 1/48-inch increments instead of lines per inch (lpi). Both commands set
linefeed spacing. To convert lpi to VMI:
VMI = 48.0/ lpi
If the Page Length (Esc & l # P) command follows an VMI change, physical page size is
recalculated. Depending on the VMI modification, the printer may request a different page
size.
