narrow-carriage printers can print up to 11 inches across. When
wide text printing is disabled, the leftmost and rightmost print
positions, margins and horizontal tabs return to their original
locations.

With wide text printing enabled, text prints unidirection-ally; that
is, text printing occurs only while the carriage moves from left-
to-right across the platen. Also, the letter- and memo-quality
print speeds are slower than normal.

This sequence does not affect graphics printing. If you want to
print wide graphics, you must use the Wide Graphics sequence.

)Note: With wide text printing enabled, be sure to load paper in
the printer so that it aligns with the blue line on the paper scale.
This ensures that printing does not run off the left side of the
page.

codes no longer print characters, but instead print 8-dot-high
columns of dots on the current print line. Depending on the
mode, the columns are spaced from 1/60 to 1/240 inch apart.
This sequence does not change the current line spacing. Variable
m in the sequence determines which graphics mode the printer
uses:

In the HS double and quadruple modes, consecutive hori-xontal
dots are not permitted. If the sequence specifies consecutive
horizontal dots, the printer does not print the second dot.

Variables n1 and n2 define the number of columns to print. This
number equals the number of bytes in the list. The printer
interprets n1 and n2 as follows:

Number of columns = (256 x n2) + n1
