IBM Mode 43
English
If trying to skip to a tab stop set beyond the width of the page, or skip to a
tab where none was set, the printer advances the paper one line and begins
printing at the first column of the next line..
Vertical Tabs
The command VT advances the paper to the next vertical tab stop position.
If automatic carriage return is on, a CR is done after each VT.
In Epson or IBM mode, if the next tab stop is greater than the form length
(or the form length minus skip perforation) or no vertical tab stops are set,
a VT command is treated as a line feed.
Up to 16 vertical tabs can be set in the Epson mode or up to 64 positions
on a page in IBM mode. The vertical tab positions are set in lines and the
line at the top of the form is line number 1.
Note:
Horizontal tabs are set at every 8th position, starting
at column 9.
MISCELLANEOUS FEATURES
Carriage Return & Line Feed
When the printer receives a Carriage Return (CR) command, it will print
a line of data and return the print head to the left side of the page. When it
receives a Line Feed (LF) command, the printer will advance the paper one
line. Normally software automatically adds a carriage return and line feed
at the end of a line, but it may be necessary to include these commands in
a program.
