Where:
n enables or disables upside-down printing.
X'00' Disable upside-down printing.

Purpose:
The print data appears upside down when data is printed normally. This
command allows the data to be right-side up as it comes out of the printer.
Remarks:
v When upside-down printing is enabled, the last line of data must be sent
to the print first.
v This command is valid only at the beginning of a printer line.
Select character size for scalable fonts
This command is only supported in the thermal station.
Syntax:
GS ! n or X'1D21;n'
Where:
n Defines the height and width of a character. The four least
significant bits (LSBs) specify the height and the four most
significant bits (MSBs) specify the width of the character. See
Table 11.
For example, if n=X'14' the scaled character will be twice the
defined width and five times the defined height.
