This is standard printing.
This is emphasized printing.
Emphasized is an especially good method for emphasizing a word
or phrase in the draft mode as shown in the printout below. The code
to turn off emphasized is ESCape “F”.
In the draft mode
emphasized makes a
word stand out.
Double-strike
The other bold mode is double-strike. For this mode the LQ prints
each line, then moves the paper up slightly and prints the line again.
Each dot is printed twice, with the second one slightly below the
first as you can see if you run this program, which uses ESCape “G” to
turn on double-strike.

Since each line in this mode is printed twice, the speed of your
printing is slowed. The code to turn off double-strike is ESCape “H”.
Some users prefer the effect of emphasized, and others prefer
double-strike. You can look at the printout below and decide for
yourself.
