I would like to know if the standard printer drivers know how to
skip over perforations. I have been using an Epson FX-85 and setting
the number of lines, plus margins, seems to have no effect.(I do
direct my output to PRT: ). That is, the printer will not skip over
perforations and will print on top of page breaks (urgh..). Is there a
quick fix? What is the purpose of setting the lines per page then?
Just tired of bad looking output...

Yes, the printer drivers do support perf skip. I use it all the time on my MPS-1000. Try the following. ESC[nq perf skip n (n > 0) ESC[0q perf skip off Also, all of the Printer Device Command Functions are listed on page 3-198 to 3-200 of the RKM Vol. 1. -- ************************************************************************* Lisa Rossi-Siracusa Commodore Business Machines uucp: {ihnp4|seismo|caip}!cbmvax!rossi arpa: cbmvax!rossi@seismo.css.GOV or rossi@cbmvax.UUCP@{seismo|harvard} (215) 431-9180 *************************************************************************
