Parameter

Function
The SBM command sets the bottom margin, as measured from the top edge limit of the
paper in the units designated by the UNIT command.
If an attempt is made to print below the bottom margin, the characters will be printed on
the next page.
A bottom margin setting in a document file should be placed at the beginning of the file
or at a page break.
The SPL (set page length) and SLPP (set lines per page) commands also set the bottom
margin, but these commands measure from the top margin position.
