Purpose:
When the printer is wall-mounted, the front of the printer points up.
Therefore, 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:
vWhen upside-down printing is enabled, the last line of data must be sent
to the print first.
vThis command is valid only at the beginning of a print line.

defined width and five times the defined height.
