    <text>Hello</text><feed />
<text>World</text><feed />
  • Prints text while peeling off labels one by one.

Supplementary explanation

  • The line feed amount for the standard and page modes are stored separately. Specifying the linespc attribute influences the linespc attribute of the succeeding <text> element.
  • When the linespc attribute is set to 30 dots, up to 240 lines can be specified.
  • The pos attribute does not work in the page mode.
  • If the line spacing for a single line is set smaller than the print character size, paper may be fed for a larger quantity than the set amount to ensure proper printing.
