Compuprint 4247-Z03 Programmer Manual - Manual (Page 26)

This control moves the current horizontal print position to the left margin. The vertical print position does
not change unless automatic line feed mode is active (see “Set Auto Line Feed (ESC 5)” on page 13).
Shift Out (SO) / Double-Wide Print
0E
This control causes the printer to start double-width printing. Double-width printing prints the characters
twice as wide as the current character spacing. This results in half as many characters per inch. Each
character takes up the space of two single-width characters. A Carriage Return, Line Feed, Form Feed,
Vertical Tab, Double-Wide Continuous Mode, or Cancel Double-Wide Print with vertical movement
specified cancels the Shift Out control code.
Shift In (SI) / Condensed Print
0F
This control prints graphic characters in condensed pitch (15 CPI, 16.7 CPI, 17.1 CPI or 20 CPI).
Shift In is a buffer terminating control; if printable data at a different character-per-inch setting is buffered,
that data is printed before the setting is changed. The current print position becomes the next printable
column at the new character-per-inch setting. CPI can be changed within a print line, and this control
changes the maximum number of characters that can be printed on one line.
When Printer Compatibility 7 – Condensed Print option in the ASCII Configuration menu is set to 15 CPI,
then 15 CPI is selected, otherwise, 16.7 CPI or 17.1 CPI is selected.
A combination of 12 CPI and Condensed Print sets the printer to 20 CPI when Printer Compatibility 9 (20
CPI) option is set to Enabled in the ASCII Configuration menu. A combination of 12 CPI and Condensed
Print sets the printer to 12 CPI when Printer Compatibility 9 (20 CPI) option is set to Disabled in the ASCII
Configuration menu.
Device Control 1 (DC1) / Select
11
This control selects the printer.
Device Control 2 (DC2) / Select
12
This control sets 10 characters per inch. DC2 is a buffer terminating control; if printable data at a different
characters-per-inch setting is buffered, that data is printed before the setting is changed. The current print
position becomes the next printable column at the new character-per-inch setting. CPI can be changed
within a print line.
Device Control 3 (DC3) / Select
