Command Summary
Sending printer commands
Most actions your printer performs are handled by your software.
Software commands instruct the printer to print in a particular typeface,
feed the paper a certain amount after printing each line, start printing a
particular place on the page, and so on.
Some software programs let you send these commands yourself. This
allows you to enhance your printing in ways that may not normally be
available through the software. For example, some word processing
programs may not offer shadow fonts, but by inserting a command in
your document, you can use shadow fonts anywhere you like. The
commands your printer recognizes are listed in this command summary.
