I'm in doubt for the 82162a. But the manual is quite bad and short, it seems that HP already showed signs of decadence in 1982 !!

My bad, yes, I was referring to 82162a.
I agree the manual is short and sometime I had to try and fail before understanding the behaviour of some commands.
But from one of the threads you have exhumed, it seems that line spacing is related to the printer mechanism.

I'm curious about how other HP-IL printers were managed...
Maybe I should add more printers (or even plotters ?) handling ?
