*F or *NEWPAGE (PRTPAGE)

PLBCMP GUI Only

*F[={count}]

or

*NEWPAGE

This list control advances the printer to the next page and to align the printer to the first print position of the next page.

Unlike the PRINT instruction where a new page is automatically accessed when the last line of the previous page is finished, the PRTPAGE instruction does not automatically skip to the next page unless an *F or *NEWPAGE list control is used.

The *F={count} list control outputs multiple *F controls. This causes completion of the current page and output of additional blank pages.

{count} may be a decimal constant, a numeric variable, an Expression, or an equated variable. If {count} is not specified, a value of one is assumed.
