The following escape sequences could be sent to the printer to select a primary font with
the above characteristics:
ESC(0U ESC(s0P ESC(s10H ESC(s12V
ESC(s0S ESC(s3B ESC(s3T
The previous sequence should be shortened by combining sequences that have the same
two characters following the ESC character.
ESC(0UESC(s0p10h12v0s3b3T
Once the font has been selected as explained above, selecting another font with similar
characteristics only requires changing the characteristics that are different.For example, to
specify a font differing only in style (italic) and stroke weight (medium), only style and
stroke weight need to be specified, as shown below:
ESC(s1S ESC(s0B
or shortened:
ESC(s1s0B
NOTE:
If an escape sequence does not contain
a value field, the printer assumes a value of zero;
therefore, the sequence ESC(sB could be sent to
the printer instead of ESC(s0B.
When several fonts with similar characteristics are available in the printer at the same time,
you should use full character description strings to select the desired fonts.
