n | nK

specifies the number of lines that compose a page in multiples of 1 (n) or 1,024 (nK). You can specify decimal values for the number of kilobytes. For example, a value of 800 specifies 800 lines, a value of .782k specifies 801 lines, and a value of 3k specifies 3,072 lines.

hexX

specifies the number of lines that compose a page as a hexadecimal value. You must specify the value beginning with a number (0-9), followed by hexadecimal characters (0-9, A-F), and then followed by an X. For example, the value 2dx specifies 45 lines.

MIN

sets the number of lines that compose a page to the minimum setting, which is 15.

MAX

sets the number of lines that compose a page to the maximum setting, which is 32,767.
