printed in column 74, but not in column 75.
The leftmost column is column zero. The right margin must be right of the left margin and

inches. Invalid right margins will be ignored. Overrides the “Right Margin” value in the forms menu.
Example: The following escape sequence will set a right margin 7.5 inches from the left edge of the
form, if character spacing is currently 10 cpi. For a standard 8.5 inch wide form, this would result in a
one inch right margin.

changed after setting the skip distance, the skip distance will not be changed.
The skip distance is split between the top and bottom margins, so the perforation will be centered in
the resulting white space. The specified skip distance must be less than the form length, or the
command will be ignored. Perforation skip is canceled by ESC O, ESC C n or ESC C NUL n.
Overrides the “Top Margin” and “Bottom Margin” values in the forms menu.
Example: The following escape sequence will set a two inch perforation skip distance, if the current
line spacing is 6 lpi. This will result in a one inch top and bottom margin.
