SELECT EMULATION
If p2 is 0, which is the default, then the current settings in the printer remain in effect
through the emulation change to the extent that selected features are supported in
the target emulation. This affects such things as, font selection, character pitch,
margins, tabs, and so forth. If p2 is 1, then the status of such parameters reverts to
defaults dependent on the selected emulation.

ESC [(p1)p SELECT PAPER PATH
p1 selects
08 unload current path
10 unload current path and load tractor 2
12 unload current path and load tractor 1
Forms in the current path should be torn off before changing paper paths. If
you send a command to change paper paths and there is more paper
downstream of the print head than 1/2 times the current form length or six
inches, whichever is greater, then the printer returns paper to the position that
was current before the command was received, and a fault condition is set.
If you send a command to change paper paths and the target path is the
current path, then the printer executes a form feed. If you load tractor 2
Example: Unload tractor 1 and load tractor 2:

when tractor 2 is not installed, the command will be ignored.
