Prior to pressing key (4) LINE FEED, press any paper motion key to
advance paper as appropriate, and the display will not change. After
pressing set key (4) LINE FEED, the display will change to a counter
that will count the line feeds forward as key (2) FORM FEED is pressed
or backwards, as key (3) ON LINE is pressed. However, the paper will
not move again until key (7) FONT LINE FEED is pressed to set bottom
of form. The top of form is actually set when key (4) LINE FEED is
pressed. At this point, the 0.23 cm (1/72 inch) paper control keys (8)
SET TOF and (9) FCT are disabled. Also, key (2) FORM FEED cannot
be enabled because it is being used to increment line feed counts without
moving the paper. Pressing the bottom of form key (7) FONT will cause
the form parameters entered to be saved, move the paper to align the
top of the next form with the print line, and exit the Form Setup mode.
