When m = 83 (“S”) Red/black adornment of ANK space characters (20H).
m n Red adornment of ANK space characters (20H).
83 0 Adorn
83 1 Do not adorn
This parameter specifies whether to adorn red/black for ANK space characters in red printing mode (black/white in-
verted).
The ANK space characters are limited to ASCII code 20H in this setting. In the character code table, if 7FHex is a space
character, 7FHex is a target for this setting.
The following is an example of each setting. It is possible to avoid unnecessary adornment in printing patterns that pro-
vide spacing of printing positions with ANK space characters (20H) when red is specified.

Print data: <ESC> “4” “TOTAL” 20H 20H 20H 20H 20H 20H 20H 20H 20H “$1234” <LF>
<Condition 1> ANK adornment = “black/white inverted printing,” ANK space characters = “red/black adornment”
TOTAL $1234
<Condition 1> ANK adornment = “black/white inverted printing,” ANK space characters = “no red/black adornment”
