Serial LF 0A 10
Purpose Prints the data in the buffer (if any) and advances the paper one line at the
current
line space setting.
Comment If configured for LF equals newline (LF=CR+LF), the logical print head is
positioned
at character column
1 of the new line. Otherwise, the logical print
head does not move when configured for LF function only (LF=LF ONLY).
The LF function cancels all single line print attributes such as double high
(elongated)
and double wide (expanded) characters.
This code is always configured for LF=CR+LF in the P-Series protocol.
In the P-Series Even Dot Plot mode (high density graphics), the LF code
does
not cause paper motion; the data in the buffer is plotted and the logical
print
head is positioned at character column 1 in anticipation of the Odd Dot
Plot
control code to complete high density graphic plotting.
In the P-Series Odd Dot Plot mode (normal density graphics), the LF code
plots
the data in the buffer, advances the paper a single
dot row at the current
vertical dot density, and positions the logical print head at character column
1.
