9–11Epson FX Emulation
Line Feed
ASCII Code LF
HEX Code 0A
Purpose Prints the data in the buffer (if any) and advances the vertical
character postion a distance of one line at the current line spacing.
Comment The simulated print head keeps the same distance from the margin.
The current line is printed and the simulated printhead moves down
a distance equal to the current line spacing. If there are no dots,
paper moves and no printing occurs. When possible, successive line
feeds are accumulated and moved at once.
This code cancels all one–line–only emphasis and font selections:
double–wide from SO and ESC SO, and unidirectional printing from
ESC <.
Carriage Return
ASCII Code CR
HEX Code 0D
Purpose Prints the data in the buffer, then returns the simulated print head to
the left margin.
Comment A line feed may be appended if the printer is configured from the
control panel for CR = CR + LF. Subsequent data are overstruck. If a
CR occurs after a character sequence that generates no dots, the
dot–less data are not printed. When CR = CR + LF, this code cancels
all one–line–only emphasis and font controls: double–wide from SO
and ESC SO, and unidirectional printing from ESC <.
