You may need to use some of these supply positioning control characters to
position the fields on the format. The data stream can also write spaces to the
printer before it prints text to position a field.

You can also change the line spacing between lines or before a line. See
“Selecting the Line Spacing” in this chapter for more information.

NOTE: There are .157-inch no-print zones on the left and right sides of the

format, and a .7-inch no-print zone at the top of the format.
