The Serial Matrix condensed print control code SI affects all subsequent
characters. After receiving code SI, all characters will be printed in condensed
print until reset by ESC M, ESC P, the condensed print reset control code
DC2, printer reset, or a new print mode control code. The Serial Matrix SI
code (hex 0F) is equivalent to the ESC SI code. If condensed print is not alĆ
lowed in the current print mode, the code is ignored.
