With the variable spacing commands you can define the line spac-
ings via the parameter »n« in multiples of 1/72 inch, 1/216 inch or
1/360 inch. These commands do not execute a line feed, but only set
the line spacing which is used by a following line feed command.
The command ESC A n for a variable line spacing of n/72 inch as-
signs the desired value to the line spacing variable. The newly se-
lected line spacing only becomes valid when it is activated by the
command ESC 2. If ESC 2 is sent without the line spacing having
been changed by the preceding command ESC A, the printer resets
the line spacing to the value which was selected in the menu under
Line Spacing
.
Alternate Graphics Mode (AGM)
This mode can be activated in the menu mode. AGM contains com-
mands compatible with the Epson LQ printer series that are limited
to Graphic- and Line feed commands. The commands available in
AGM are marked.
If the Alternate Graphics Mode is selected in the menu ESC A n line
spacing steps will change to n/60 inch and the ESC 3 n to n/180
inch.
