The skipover perforation is the sum of top and bottom margins values at the selected
vertical spacing. The n parameter must be less than the current form length. The
skipover is memorized as physical position on the page. It is cancelled by ESC O or
changing the form length. The skipover value, when accepted, will set the top and
bottom margins according to the operator panel setting (see the User Manual):
If the top margin set via operator panel is greater than the skipover value, then the
following value of the margins will be set:
Top margin = skipover value
Bottom margin = 0
If the top margin set via operator panel is less or equal to the skipover value, then
the following value of the margins will be set:
Top margin = operator panel value
Bottom margin = the difference between skipover value and top margin value
If the sum of the top and bottom margins values set via operator panel is less than
the skipover value, the following values for the margins will be set:
Top margin = operator panel value
Bottom margin = the difference between skipover value and top margin value
