    Resolved [RESOLVED] IBM Printer Control Codes

    I have an ASCII file which is intended to go to an IBM 6500 printer

    The first character on each line is a control character
    I've deduced that + means start a new page but I can't find out what the other chars mean

    The choices are basically + or - or a digit
    I suspect that the digit means insert this number of blank lines but I need to find out for sure


    Thanks
