Select Italic Mode ESC 4

Selects italic mode. This causes italic characters to be printed by setting the MSB (most significant

bit) of all following printable characters to one. The effect is to map characters from the bottom half

(non-italic) of the font to the top half (italic) of the font. For this to work correctly, an Epson FX font

must be selected (see ESC k). The other available fonts do not include italic characters.

Cancel Italic Mode ESC 5

accepted as is. Italic characters may still be printed by transmitting characters with the MSB turned

on.
