Description

This command sets the print line length to be used in autoformat rotated print
mode. The maximum number of characters is 128 per line. The power on
default line length is 80 characters.

The number of available print lines is found by dividing 1760 by the number of
characters per line and rounding down to the nearest whole number. The
minimum number is 80 characters. Any value less than 80 will not allow any
additional lines to be printed. Values greater than 80 will limit the number of
lines to less than 22.
