Switches from page mode to standard mode. In switching
from page mode to standard mode, data buffered in page
mode are cleared, the printing area set by set print area in
page mode (1B 57) is initialized and the print position is
set to the beginning of the line.
This command switches the settings for the following
commands (the values for these commands can be set
independently in standard mode and page mode) to those
for standard mode:

• Set right-side character spacing (1B 20)
• Select 1/6 inch line spacing (1B 32)
• Set line spacing (1B 33)
Standard mode is automatically selected when power
is turned on, the printer is reset, or the initialize printer
command (1B 40) is used.

Exceptions

This command is effective only in page mode.

(upside down) (C)

3 = Upper right corner proceeding

Default:

Selects the printing direction and start position in page
mode. See the illustration on previous page.
The command can be sent multiple times so that several
different print areas, aligned in different print directions,
can be developed in the printer’s page buffer before
being printed using the print page mode commands
(0C or 1B 0C).

Exceptions

The command is valid only in page mode.
The command is ignored if the value of n is out of the
specified range.
