Set Right Margin, Set Left Margin

Page 60 highlights

Chapter 4 - Control Code Definitions Set Right Margin Clears all text in the print buffer and sets the right margin to n columns, using the current character pitch. This is the number of the characters from column 1 (at the left edge of the paper) to the last column before the right margin (factory default = 80). Minimum space between margins is the width of one double-width pica character. Maximum value for this is the maximum number of characters (based on the current pitch) that would fit between the left margin and the right edge of the default printable area of the page. Ranges shown below could vary, depending on values of other parameters that affect character width. If the value specified is not within the allowed range, it is ignored. Range of n is 2 to 80 in Pica mode, 2 to 96 in Elite mode, and 2 to 136 in compressed mode.

Minimum space between margins is the width of one double-width pica character. Maximum value must be less than the right margin. Ranges shown below could vary, pending on other parameter values that affect character width. If the specified value is not within the range, it is ignored.

Set Right Margin
Clears all text in the print buffer and sets the right margin to
n
columns, using the current character pitch. This is the number of the
characters from column 1 (at the left edge of the paper) to the last
column before the right margin (factory default = 80).
Minimum space between margins is the width of one double-width
pica character. Maximum value for this is the maximum number of
characters (based on the current pitch) that would fit between the left
margin and the right edge of the default printable area of the page.
Ranges shown below could vary, depending on values of other
parameters that affect character width. If the value specified is not
within the allowed range, it is ignored.
Range of
n
is 2 to 80 in Pica mode, 2 to 96 in Elite mode, and 2 to 136
in compressed mode.
Set Left Margin
Clears the print buffer text and sets the left margin, relative to the
number of columns to the left of the first column to print
(factory default = 0).
Minimum space between margins is the width of one double-width
pica character. Maximum value must be less than the right margin.
Ranges shown below could vary, pending on other parameter values
that affect character width. If the specified value is not within the
range, it is ignored.
Range of
n
is 0 to 78 in pica mode, 0 to 93 in elite mode, and 0 to 133
in compressed mode.
