Auto carriage return ............... ESC ESC CR n 1B 1B 0D n 27 27 13 n This sequence starts and ends the automatic carriage return
Start ...................................... ESC ESC CR 1 1B 1B 0D 31 27 27 13 49 mode, wherein the printer performs a carriage return and
End ....................................... ESC ESC CR 0 1B 1B 0D 30 27 27 13 48 line feed for every line feed code it receives.
Auto line feed ............................ ESC ESC LF n 1B 1B 0A n 27 27 10 n These sequences start and end the automatic line feed
Start (all emulations) ........... ESC ESC LF 1 1B 1B 0A 31 27 27 10 49 mode, wherein the printer performs a carriage return and
Start (IBM emulation) ......... ESC 5 1 1B 35 31 27 53 49 line feed for every carriage return code it receives.
End (all emulations) ............ ESC ESC LF 0 1B 1B 0A 30 27 27 10 48
End (IBM emulation) .......... ESC 5 0 1B 35 30 27 53 48
Auto perforation ...................... ESC ESC FF n 1B 1B 0C n 27 27 12 n This sequence starts and ends the automatic perforation
skip mode 1 skip mode, wherein the printer performs a form feed when-
Start ...................................... ESC ESC FF 1 1B 1B 0C 31 27 27 12 49 ever printing reaches one-half inch from the bottom of
End ....................................... ESC ESC FF 0 1B 1B 0C 30 27 27 12 48 the page. The form feed advances the paper one-half inch
beyond the next top-of-form or top margin (if one is set).
Start auto perforation ............. ESC N n 1B 4E n 27 78 n This sequence starts and ends the automatic perforation
skip mode 2 skip mode, wherein the printer performs a form feed whenever
printing approaches the bottom of the page. The form feed
advances the paper to the next top-of-form or top margin (if one
is set). The value of variable n defines how many blank lines are
left at the bottom of each page. Varia-ble n can range from one
line up to the current page length. For example, to leave six blank
lines at the bottom of a page, the correct sequence is ESC N
ACK. The End Auto Perforation Skip Mode 2, Set Page Length in
Lines or Set Page Length in Inches sequence ends this mode.
End auto perforation ................ ESC O 1B 4F 27 79 These sequence ends automatic perforation skip mode 2.
skip mode 2
Unidirectional printing ............. These sequences control unidirectional printing, wherein
Start ...................................... ESC U 1 1B 55 31 27 85 49 printing occurs only while the carriage moves from left to
Start (alternate) .................... ESC ESC U 1 1B 1B 55 31 27 27 85 49 right. Unidirectional printing enables the exact alignment
End ....................................... ESC U 0 1B 55 30 27 85 48 of multi-line graphics, component characters and other
End (alternate) ..................... ESC ESC U 0 1B 1B 55 30 27 27 85 48 applications where vertical alignment is important.
Ignore codes .............................. ESC ESC I n 1B 1B 49 n 27 27 73 n This sequence causes the printer to ignore from 1 to 95
subsequent codes that it receives. The value of variable n minus
32 defines the number of subsequent codes to ignore. For
example, to ignore the next 20 codes, the correct escape
sequence is ESC ESC I 4.
