Page formatting
Function
Page length in lines
Page length in inches
By selecting page length you can inform the printer of the size of the
paper used. When is switched on the current position of the print
head is registered as Top of Form, i.e. first print line on the page.
When printing forms it is important that the page length is set to the
dimensions of the form so that not only the first but also all follo-
wing form sets are printed in the right position.
Normally a standard length can be set in the Page Length menu
item, though the page length can also be defined by one of the abo-
ve commands in inches or in the number of lines. For the latter it
must nor exceed 50 inches. Otherwise the command will be igno-
red.
If Page Length Control is by MENU Setting, the start position for
the sheet is not reset. Defining the page length in lines is done as a
function of the current line spacing. However, any subsequent
change of line spacing does not change the page length. When
using these two commands to change the page length the form start
position is reset, a »Skip over Perforation« defined by command is
deactivated and the value for the skip over perforation selected in
the menu item is used. Set vertical tabs are deleted.
