CHAPTER 6 EPSON - 20
Selecting either superscript or subscript mode cancels double-height printing mode.
You can cancel either superscript or subscript mode with the Esc T command.
LPRINT CHR$(27); CHR$(83); CHR$(0); 'Turn on superscript mode
Cancel superscript / subscript mode
EscT (27)(84) <1Bh><54h>
This command cancels superscript or subscript printing mode.
Subsequent text is printed using normal characters.
LPRINT CHR$(27); CHR$(84); 'Turn off superscript mode
Select / cancel double-height printing
Escwn (27)(119)n <1Bh><77h>n
This command turns double-height printing on or off.
If n is set to 1 subsequent text is printed using double-height characters. The line space setting is
doubled.
If n is set to 0 subsequent text is printed using normal sized characters. The previous line spacing is
restored.
When you specify a value for n you may also use the character codes for ‘0’ and ‘1’ (48 and 49)
instead of 0 and 1.
You cannot use superscript, subscript or condensed printing modes in conjunction with double-
height printing. If you try to select any of these three modes while in double-height printing the
command will be ignored.
LPRINT CHR$(27); CHR$(119); CHR$(1); 'Set double-height printing mode
Select / cancel underline mode
Esc–n (27)(45)n <1B><2D>n
This command turns character underlining on or off.
If n is set to 1 subsequent text is printed underlined. All characters, including space characters, are
underlined with a continuous line.
Horizontal tabbed spaces are never underlined.
If n is set to 0 subsequent text is not underlined.
When you specify a value for n you may also use the character codes for ‘0’ and ‘1’ (48 and 49)
instead of 0 and 1.
LPRINT CHR$(27); CHR$(45); CHR$(1); 'Underline following text
Select printing mode
Esc!n (27)(33)n <1Bh><21h>n
This command allows you to select a combination of printing modes with just one command.
The various modes are weighted as shown. Add the numbers that correspond to each mode you
require and set n to the total.
10 characters per inch 0
12 characters per inch 1
Proportional spacing 2
Condensed mode 4
Emphasized mode 8
Double-strike mode 16
Double-width mode 32
Italic printing 64
Underline mode 128
Double-strike and emphasized modes are identical.
Proportional spacing overrides either character pitch setting (10 cpi or 12 cpi).
Proportional spacing and condensed mode cannot be combined. Proportional spacing has
precedence.
LPRINT CHR$(27); CHR$(33); CHR$(138); 'Proportionally space, emphasize
& underline following text.
