Commodore MPS 1200 - MARGINS

Set page length by inches
BASIC
Hex
chr$(27) "C" chr$(O) chr$(n) (n = 1 to 150)
1BC300nh (nh = 01hto96h)
This command sets the page length to n inches. To use this com-
mand, send ESC C followed by chr$(O) and then the ASCII code
for the
number of inches you want, from 0 to 150. For example,
chr$(27)
"C" chr$(O) chr$(7) sets the page length to 7 inches, a
typical
length for many computer forms. Line spacing has no effect
on the page length set in inches.
Example:
H' open 1,4,7
20 pr int#1, chr$ (27) "C"chr$ (0) ; chr$ (3)
30 pr'int#1, "CLlstomer' NLlmber:"; chr$ (9) ; "Order Number:"
4(1 print#1, chr'$ (12); "Customer' Number':"; chr$ (9) ; "or'der Number:"
50 print#1, chr'$ (27) "C"chr$ (I,,) ; chr'$ (11)
60 close 1
Customer' Number:
or'det' Number:
Customer' Number': ot'der' Number:
When you run the program above, you will see the information
printed twice, three inches apart. Line 40 resets the page length to
11 inches.
MARGINS
The MPS 1200 has four commands that let you set the margins on
your page. In order for these commands to work properly, the
MPS 1200 must know where the top of the page is. Therefore,
always
make sure the top of the page is lined up with the metal
ribbon guide when you turn on the MPS 1200.
