• The characters
I
CNTL
I II)
(form feed) and
I
CNTL
I
IT] (end-of-file
marker) are trapped by LPSETUP, and are never actually
sent to the printer. A
I
CNTL
III)
will cause LPSETUP to auto-
matically print a footer on the current page, skip perforation,
and print the header on the next page, in that order. A I
CNTL
I
[I] will also cause LPSETUP to print the current page footer
and issue perforation skip, but the new page number is set
back to 1, and the header on this new page is not printed until
the first character to be printed on that page is sent. Hence,
issue a
I
CNTL
I II)
(by the LPRINT CHR$(&HC); command in
BASIC, or by using the PRINT utility) after each printed file
when you want to print your next file at the beginning of a
new page, but you do not want the page number of that next
page set back to 1; Issue a
I
CNTL
I
IT]
(by the LPRINT
CHR$(&H1A); command in BASIC) when you want the same
results, but with the page number set back to 1. Note, how-
ever, that a
I
CNTL
I
IT] has no effect if issued immediately
after a
I
CNTL
I II);
at least one line of text must be printed
beyond the page header before a I
CNTL
I
IT] will be heeded!
• Each time you change the pagination format of LPSETUP
using one or more escape code sequences, be sure to set your
printer to top of form on a new page, and re-invoke the
LPSETUP command.
• The maximum page number is 65535.
• The page header and footer may contain up to 1320 charac-
ters, each. If you try to exceed this limit, you will get a warn-
ing message.
• You may invoke LPSETUP with or without LPDRVRSYS in
the CONFIG.SYS bootup file.
