10.8.12
Text Length
This command is ignored if current VMI is 0 or a text length greater than [logical page length -
top margin] is requested. A value field of 0 defaults text length.
Text length determines the bottom margin when perforation skip is enabled. Text length is
ignored when perforation skip is disabled.
10.8.13
Perforation Skip Mode
Controls perforation skip mode.
The perforation region extends from the bottom of the text area to the top margin of the next
page. Text Length (Esc & 
# F) determines the size of the perforation skip region (and, indi-
rectly, the bottom margin).
If perforation skip is enabled, text length sets the bottom margin. Printing ends at the specified
text length, and then starts again at the top margin of the next page.
