Purpose
Selects bold character printing.
Comment
When the bold character printing control code is received, all characters are
printed in bold until reset by the bold print reset control code or printer reset.
Bold Print is the same as printing double strike. Bold character printing may
reduce print speed to half.
When SFCC j is used, bold printing is selected for one line only and reset by
the bold print reset control code, printer reset, or a paper motion command.
Superscript/subscript characters will cause the bold function to be impleĆ
mented by a vertical shadow" rather than a double strike. The bold attribute
has no affect on superscript or subscript characters themselves.
Example
The following sample program illustrates bold character printing.
