Turns off the paper-out sensor so that you can print to the end of a
single sheet of paper. This command duplicates the function of DIP
switch 1-2. Computer systems that monitor printer cable pin
12
will
ignore both ESCape 8 and the setting of switch
1-2.
If you have such
a system and want to print on the bottom two inches of a sheet of
paper, there are two solutions to this problem. Buy a computer
cable designed to overcome the problem; or use longer paper as a
backing sheet.
