Configuring The KSSM Emulation With Control Codes

Super-Set Commands

The unique control code sequence for both SSCC and ASSC commands are
defined in the table below:

Set And Reset Codes

Set and reset are other ways of saying turn on and turn off; select and
deselect; or enable and disable.

Some printer features are set and reset with an escape sequence and the
numbers 1 or 0. In those cases, you can represent 1 and 0 as hexadecimal
codes 01 and 00, or as the ASCII codes for the numerals 1 and 0
(hexadecimal 31 and 30).
