This command allows modifying the font and pitch type style of a character.

The values 2 and 0 are constants. If font lock and pitch lock are active, this command
is ignored. To select the values for the variables m and n, which identify the pitch and
the font type style to use, refer to the table below.

1. Identify the type style (pitch and font) to use in the left column (pitch).

2. For the hexadecimal values for m n, look across the row to the second column (Hex m n).

3. For the decimal values for m n, look across the row to the third column (Decimal m n).

Substitute these values for m n in the printer command syntax.
