Example 1: In this example, the words Shopping List: are part of the Graphics
Pass with the data milk, eggs, and butter, transmitted afterward.
Since butter contains the most letters (six characters), the data
field will be 6 bytes. The command:
^B^-^M0202000Shopping List:
^[006^-^*^*^]
milk^-
buttereggs^-^-^G
will print:
The word butter, having six characters, completely fills up its data field and
doesn’t require a ^- to fill out the data field. If a ^- had been used after butter,
then a blank field would have been created, as it was at the beginning of the
data sequence by the second ^-.
