Discussion When the
n
/216-inch line spacing control code is received, all
line feeds following will be at
n
/216-inch line spacing until a new
line spacing is selected or the printer is reset. The control code
line spacing selection will override the control panel line spacing
setting.
The vertical character position moves only in multiples of the
current dot row spacing. If the distance to move is other than a
multiple of the current dot row spacing, the remainder is added
to the next paper motion command.
Caution should be used when combining this control code with
other print attributes such as Elongated (Double High),
Superscript, or Subscript; overlapping lines may occur.
