Carrying out an n/ 180 inch line feed
Function:
ESC J (n) transports the paper n/ 180 inch on. A value between 0 and 255 must
be given for n. This command produces an immediate line feed, but does not ef-
fect a carriage return (no CR with positioning of the print head at the beginning
of the line).
ESC J (n) has no influence on the current line spacing, which results, for examp-
le, by means of LF (line feed).
Example:
