For standard 11-inch forms, just position the paper correctly before turning on the printer; for other form lengths, use the CHR$(27)"C" command. It's time to try this out. Make sure the perforation is even with the top of the ribbon (as in Figure 8-1), reset the printer, then type: NEW 10 LPRINT CHR$(27)"N"CHR$(6); 20 FOR X=1 TO 70 30 LPRINT "SIX-LINE SKIP . . . LINE";X 40 NEXT X Figure 8-4 shows the skip. Figure 8-4. Standard skip The CHR$(27)"N"CHR!$(6) in line 10 tells the printer to skip 6 lines (1 inch), which moves the paper across the perforation to the next top of form. You can set the number of lines to any value from 1 to 127, as long as the value is less than that for the current form length (set by default or CHR$(27)"C"). If the value is greater than or equal to the form length, CHR$(27)"N" is ignored. 108
