Black-mark (Top-of-Form) Commands
This command specifies maximum (n1) and minimum (n2) length (in transport direction) of 
the black mark printed on the reverse side of the paper. The black-mark identifies the top of the 
next form (document). The length of the mark is expressed in pixel lines of 0.125-mm height.
Active transition is from ”black” to ”white” (trailing edge of black-mark).
Looks for a black mark within the distance (paper transport) specified by n1n2, starting at the 
current position.
The printer adds an error code in the status report (error, top of form, byte 1, bit 3) if no black-
mark is found within the specified distance.
