3) Line feed setting by (n-1 )/48 inch (ESC RS n)
Format • LPRINT CHR$(27);CHR$(30);CHR$(n); or
LPRINT CHR$(&H1 B);CHR$(&H 1 E);CHR$(n);
n = 1 to 126
Function • This escape sequence selects (n-1 )/48 inch line spacing. The
minimum line spacing is 1/48 inch when n = 2 and no line feed is
performed when n = 1.
Example To set the line feed to 1 /4 inch n = 1 3 which is calculated as
1 /4 = 1 2/48 and n-1 = 12, so n = 13.
