Setting line spacing
Esc&ll#D (27)(38)(108)#(68) <1Bh><25h><6Ch>#<44h>
# stands for the number of lines to be printed per inch.
• # can have any of the following values: 1, 2, 3, 4, 6, 8, 12, 16, 24 or 48.
• This command performs the same function as the VMI command.
• Changing the line spacing setting does not affect the position of the top margin.
• The factory default setting is 6 - that is, the printer will print six lines of text per inch.
• Depending on your printer model, the number of lines per page can also be set from the printer’s control panel
or remote printer console.
Text length
Esc&ll#F (27)(38)(108)#(70) <1Bh><25h><6Ch>#<46h>
# stands for the number of lines of text (at the current VMI) to be printed on each page.
• Values for # should be within the value (Logical Page length-Top margin).
• Text is printed from the top margin downwards.
• If you specify a value that would cause the text area to extend beyond the end of the logical page, the command
is ignored.
