+ n (n + 0), ESC C + [O]H + m (for setting form length)
The "ESC C + n" codes specifies the form length which is determined by the
number of lines (n: 1 s (n)n $ 127 where the value of "n" is a positive numb-
er and must not exceed 127 lines). In other words, the maximum form length is
127 lines. The amount of line spacing when this code is input is a predeter-
mined numerical value by ESC A+ n. When the form length is not programmed
by the ESC C + n code, one page is assumed as 66 lines with the DIP switch
pin 1-2 on the control circuit board set in the OFF position, or 72 lines with the
DIP switch pin 1-2 set in the ON position. The "ESC C +
fies the absolute quantity of form length in units of inches (1 d (m)o 5
Therefore, even if the amount of line spacing is changed on the page, the abso-
lute quantity of form length remains unchanged "m" denotes the form length in
inches.

N + n (n # 0) (for setting skip-over perforation)
The ESC N + n code is used to set the skip-over perforation, which specifies the
number of lines "r-r" to be skipped at the bottom of a page (n: 1 5 (n)o 5 127
where the value of n is a positive number).
For example, if the last three lines of a page is to be skipped, the value of n
must be entered as "3". Note that the value of n cannot be set greater than the
form length specified by the ESC C + n code.
When the current form length is changed by the input of the ESC C + n or ESC
C + <O>H + m code again, the amount of skip-over perforation previously set is
cancelled. In this case, therefore, the ESC N + n code must be input again to
set the amount of skip-over perforation. When the amount of skip-over perfora-
tion is not set by the ESC N + n code or the DIP switch pin 2-4 on the control
circuit board is OFF, skip-over perforation for 1 inch is executed.
