Control Sequences

^M - Select Normal Density Block Characters

Selects 60 dots per inch and sets Block Character parameters.

Command ^M(height);(width)NL

Argument

(height)

Character Height Multiplier in even numbers in the
range 2-124 (default = 2).

(width)

Character Width Multiplier in even numbers in the
range 2-124 (default = 2).

NOTE: Odd numbers can be selected, but they will default to the next lower

even number (5=>4, 7=>6, etc.).

^N - Select New Introducer

Selects a new character as the control sequence introducer where:

Command ^N(?)NL

Argument

(?)

Any single graphic character, such as !, @, #, etc.
The default character is ^ (caret). To avoid potential
problems, the new introducer should not be an
alpha-numeric character (not the letters A-Z or the
numbers 0-9).

To print the Introducer character as data, send it twice.

For example, ^ ^ prints ^-.

^R - Relative Cursor Move

Moves the cursor relative to its current position in increments equal to the
current block character height or width.

Command ^R(xrel);(yrel)NL

Argument

(xrel x W)

The distance to move horizontally in increments of
0.01 inches, where W is the current width value.
Positive values move the cursor right, and negative
values move it left. Total distance must be in the
range 0-1320 (default = 0).

(yrel x H)

The distance to move vertically in increments of
0.01 inches, where H is the current height value.
Positive values move the cursor down, and
negative values move it up. Total distance must be
in the range 0-9999 (default = 0).
