This code is a terminator code; when received it causes all data in the print buffer to be printed
out. Then if n parameter is equal to 1, the subsequent data is printed in proportional mode. If n
parameter is equal to 0, proportional mode is reset. If the any horizontal spacing command is
sent to the printer when the proportional printing is set, the command will be stored and will be
activated as soon as the proportional printing will be reset.

The changes made to the fixed-pitch setting with ESC P, ESC M or ESC g commands during
proportional mode take effect when the printer exits proportional mode. The printer
automatically switches to LQ mode when the printer exits proportional mode.
