EIA-232 syntax:
ESC K n X'1B;4B;n' where n specifies the number of line feed steps. One
inch = 51 steps (1 mm = 2 steps)
Purpose:
This command may be used to print on a particular line on a document.
The data in the print buffer is printed and the paper is fed by the amount
specified in this command. When the document is inserted until the line can
just be seen at the printer cover, and this command is sent with
