The dual print mode provides the PC400 with the ability to print the current
scale reading followed by the equivalent value in grams.
The weight is first printed using the “F0” format. Then the weight is
recalculated in grams and is sent as a second line of text. The gram data
follows the “F0” data format except where parentheses are placed after the
STX character and before the carriage return & line feed.
