Vertical Tabs
Vertical tab stops are associated with lines, not absolute physical positions. Changing
line spacing will change the physical position of the tab stops.
Vertical Tab VT
Causes the current line to be printed, and then advances the paper to the next vertical
tab stop. If no vertical tab stops are set, then a line feed is done instead. If "Auto CR:
On" is selected in the "Setup: INTERFACE" menu, a carriage return will also be
performed.

this is not desired, the old tab stops should first be cleared.
