Operation Manual

Miscellaneous Features
Carriage return and line feed
When the printer receives a Carriage Return (CR) command, it will
print a line of data and return the printhead to the left side of the
page.
When it receives a Line Feed (LF) command, the printer will
advance the paper one line. Normally your computer will
automatically
add a carriage return and line feed at the end of a
line,
but at times you may want to include these commands in your
program.
Note: Normally, the IBM PC adds a line feed command to each CR command. In
IBM SET1, you can send a CH R$(141) Carriage Return command which causes
a return without an automatic LF. If your printer prints several lines without
advancing the paper, you will have to set the
print menu option AUTO LF, toY
by using the Menu Select Mode.

This executes an immediate reverse line feed, which is acted on
only once upon receipt. Therefore, if you want to reverse several
lines,
the command must be sent once for each reverse line feed
required.
It is not possible to reverse over the Top of Form.
Note: The reverse line feed command should not be sent to a printer with a Pull
Tractor Feed
Unit attached.
