Stopping page mode definition
Several things will stop a page mode definition.
1) [ESC]@ Printer initialize command.
2) Real time reset request [ENQ]<10>
3) Parallel port INIT request.
4) Turning the printer off.
Printing the page
The [FF] command starts the printing process.
Printing starts at the current left margin and at the current paper position. The complete
page definition is printed excluding any blank information at the bottom of the page.
If the [FF] command is used to print the page, the memory used to store the page image
is not maintained and is released to be used by other functions.
