T5023/5023+ - Programming Guide
Example:
First of all, the left document margin will be set using ESC l (n) for several values of
n. Subsequently, the effect of the current character size on the left margin will be de-
monstrated.
– The absolute margin position is dependent on the set character
size (10, 12 or 15 cpi) and the print mode (condensed, elongated,
normal). With proportional spacing the left margin is determined ac-
cording to the character size 10 cpi. Subsequent alterations to the
character size have no influence on the set margin.
– The distance between the left and right margins must be at least 10
cpi.
– ESC l (n) should be entered at the beginning of a print line as
ESC l (n) deletes all the previously entered characters and tabs in
the same print line.
