Usage Notes

•The digits 2 and 0 are constants.

•If Font Lock and Pitch Lock are active, this command is ignored.

•The Hf and Lf variables identify the pitch and font typestyle you want to print. Tables 1 and 2 on page 37 describe the Hf and Lf variables. To use the tables:

1 Locate the type style (pitch and font) you want in the left column (Pitch).

2 For the decimal digits for Hf Lf, look across the row to the second through fifth columns (depending on the typestyle you want to print).

3 For the hexadecimal digits for Hf Lf, look across the row to the sixth through ninth columns (depending on the typestyle you want to print).

4 Substitute these digits for Hf Lf in the printer command syntax.

•The size parameters (Hs, Ls and Sm) are valid when the pitch and font typestyle variables (Hf and Lf) are not valid and the size modifier parame- ter (Sm) is 1 (decimal) or 01 (hexadecimal). Table 3 on page 39 specifies the pitch for valid size parameters. Other valid sizes for Sm include:

1 00 - No change

2 01 - Width is measured in 0.018 mm (1/1440 in.)

3 02, 03 - Font is porportional

4 All other values are regarded as 0.

•The Hc and Lc variables identify the Code Page you want to use. (See Table 4 on page 39.)
