Programming 6-52
Line Spacing n/72 Inch
ASCII Hex Decimal
P-Series SFCC A n SFCC 41 n SFCC 65 n
Serial ESC A n 1B 41 n 27 65 n
Purpose Stores a line spacing of n/72-inch increments.
where n = 1 to 85 (all others are ignored)
Comment When the ESC A control sequence is received, all line feed commands followĆ
ing an ESC 2 sequence* will be at n/72-inch line spacing until a new line spacĆ
ing is selected or power is reset. The control code line spacing selection will
override the control panel line spacing setting and the message display will
reflect the line spacing in lines per inch. For the 20/72-inch example below,
the message display would reflect 3.6 lpi spacing.
*The SFCC/ESC 2 sequence (page 6-48) asserts the line spacing which was
stored by the preceding SFCC/ESC A sequence.
Small values of n may result in overlapping lines. Overlapping lines may also
occur if print attributes such as Elongated (Double High), Superscript, or
Subscript characters are used on the same line. Printing at different horizonĆ
tal and vertical densities will not overlap.
Example The following example illustrates 20/72-inch line spacing.
