FORMATTING PAGES
Identical formatting commands
The Proprinter commands in the following list am identical to those of the
EX-800. If you’re not sure how they work, see “Formatting Pages” in chapter
5.
Set Page Length in Lines
<ES0 C n
Set Page Length in Inches <ESC> C <NUL> n
Set Skip Over Perforation <ES0 N n

<ES0 0
Set top of page
Before you set the page top (in effect the top margin) you first move the print
position to where you want the top of the page to be. Then to set that current
print position as the page top, send this command:
<ESC> 4
What if you need to move the top margin higher than its current setting?
Here’s the trick: put the printer offline and back on again, then move the print
position to your new top margin line and give this set top-of-page command
again.
