You could try  which is a FormFeed. Dunno if it will work with your
printer though.
Ciao Chris

I'm using XSLT to transform from XML to plain text for output to a printer.
How do I get a page-break?
I'm using $xA for new line but can't seem to find a similar code for a page
break.
I've seen commands like { page-break-before: always } but they only appear
to work when transforming to HTML.
I thought about using Formatting Objects but the XML Bible leads me to
believe that they are only supported for .pdf output and there are only two
products which will translate them properly. PDF output isn't an option for
this anyway. It's got to go directly to text and out the printer with breaks
in the proper places.
Please help. Thanks.
