Configuring The LQ-1600K Emulation With Control Codes
Set Vertical Tabs In Channels
ASCII Code ESC b
c n1 n2 n3...n16
NUL
Hex Code 1B 62 c n1 n2 n3...n16 00
Dec Code 27 98 c n1 n2 n3...n16 0
Purpose Assigns vertical tabs to channels selected by ESC /.
Where:
c
= 0 through 7
n
= 1 through 255
n1 through n16 specify the line numbers for each of the vertical
tab(s), up to a maximum of 16 tab positions in every channel,
with a maximum of eight channels. NUL must end the
sequence.
Comment Channels are selected by ESC /. The distance of each tab stop
from TOF is the current line spacing times the number of lines
given in
n.
If paper movement is commanded to a value of n greater than
the page length, the paper movement command is ignored.
The values of
n must be in ascending order. If they are not, the
sequence up to and including the out of sequence number is
ignored. The rest of the load is processed, and skip over
perforation is ignored.
You can clear any channel by sending ESC b c NUL, where c is
the channel number.
The values for n must be in ascending order; a value of n less
than the previous n ends tab setting (just like the NUL code).
Skip Over Perforation
ASCII Code ESC N n
Hex Code 1B 4E
n
Dec Code 27 78 n
Purpose Selects the number of lines (at the current line spacing) for the
paper to skip at the bottom of the perforation.
Where:
n = 1 through 127, n < n x (current line spacing) < page length.
Comment n is the number of lines skipped between the last line printed on
one page and the first line on the next page. The actual
distance set is the product of
n and the current line spacing. If
the value of n exceeds the current form length, the skip is set to
one line smaller than the form length or to 0, whichever is
greater.
Skip over perforation set by this command overrides control
panel settings. This feature is canceled by ESC O, ESC C, or
ESC C NUL.
