of the line. Parameter P5 is a signed, twos-complement, one-byte value that specifies the X coordinate of
the second end point as an offset from the first end point. Parameter P6 is a signed, twos-complement,
one-byte value that specifies the Y coordinate of the second end point as an offset from the first end point.
The remaining parameters, if present, specify additional X and Y coordinate values as offsets from the
previous point, following the same format.
The printer draws the line in the current values of color, mix, line type, and line width.
This order updates the current graphics position to the coordinates of the last offset point. If there are no
offset points with this order, the current graphics position does not change.

For a description of the End control, see “End (END)”.
