Line Feed
Command Structure <ESC>Eaaa
aaa = Number of dots (001-999) between the bottom of the
characters on one line to the top of the characters on
the next line.
Example: <ESC>E010
Placement: Preceding the text that will use the line feed function
Default: None
Command Function To print multiple lines of the same character size without specifying a new
print position for each line. With the Line Feed command, specify the
number of dots you want between each line. Then, send an ASCII <CR>
at the end of each line of text. The printer automatically identifies the size
of the last character, moves down the number of dots specified, and
begins printing the next line

Printer Output
Special Notes 1. It is effective only for the current data stream.
2. When printing lines or boxes in the same data stream with the Line
Feed command, the Lines and Boxes command should be specified
last, preceding <ESC>Q Quantity command.
3. This command is invalid only if the value specified is zero.
4. Following this command with a <CR> character will allow you to print
with auto line feed. The print position will be determined from the
value specified and the H value set in the printer. If you specify sev-
eral H values after this command, the print position will be deter-
mined by the H value last specified. You must redefine the font to be
used after each H command.
