Purpose Selects or changes print attributes in a single command.
Where:
n
= an 8-bit number with the bits set to specify print attributes,
as shown in Table 5. (0 < =
n
< = 255)
For example, to specify 10 cpi, proportional spacing, and italics,
n = 0 1 0 0 0 0 1 0
Where:
bit 0 = 0 (10 cpi)
bit 1 = 1 (proportional)
bit 2, 3, 4, 5 = 0 (normal)
bit 6 = 1 (italic)
bit 7 = 0 (normal)
n = a binary number (0 1 0 0 0 0 1 0), which equals hex 42.
The hex command sequence is 1B 21 42.
Comment Emphasized is substituted for double strike.
