[Notes] • The printer can print any character in italic mode.
• When italic mode is turned off by setting the value of
n to 0 or 48, the data which
follows is printed in normal mode.
• Italic mode can also be turned on or off using
$1B $21
. Note, however, that the last
received command is the effective one.

[Description] This command is used to control the Form Feed key. Normally, when this key is
pressed, the paper forward feeds until a reference mark is detected or until the steps set
by the
$1B $5C
command have been completed. When the key is released, a character
$0C is transmitted. In this way a controller can check the output of receipts with progres-
sive number etc. directly.
n = 0 Disables transmission - Enables the Form Feed key
n > 0 Enables transmission when the Form Feed key is pressed.
