NOTE: The hex values shown (ie: 0 and 30) are equivalent.
Either value can be used in your program expression.
NOTE: The print mode (m) must be changed before the first printable symbol of a print
line (spaces included) or the command sequence is deferred until the next line.
NOTE: When using the Multinational character set in OCR-A or OCR-B print mode,
a unique character set is used. Refer to the Multinational Character Sets chapter for more
information.
Example Any of the BASIC expressions listed below will select the Data Processing
print mode at 17.1 cpi.
where: m (print mode) = 0 or 30 for Data Processing; and
n (pitch) = 4 or 34 for 17.1 cpi.
