Unidirectional Mode (one line) | ESC < |
Selects unidirectional mode for the current line (until a carriage return is received). This will force the line to print from left to right.
Escape Sequence: | ESC | < |
Hexadecimal: | 1B | 3C |
Unidirectional Mode |
| ESC U n |
Selects unidirectional mode for n=1, or bidirectional mode for n=0. Printing is normally bidirectional. Unidirectional printing provides more accurate positioning, but causes lower throughput.
Example: The following escape sequence will force unidirectional printing.
Escape Sequence: | ESC | U | 1 |
Hexadecimal: | 1B | 55 | 31 |
Reset |
|
| ESC @ |
Deletes all data on the current line and initializes the printer to the default settings for the current form.
Restores the default horizontal tab stops. Default tab stops are set at every eighth column, i.e. column 8, 16, 24, 32, 40, etc.
Resets top of form to the current position, so it is wise to be at top of form before performing this reset. Issuing a form feed will guarantee this.
See the appendix on Printer Reset Conditions for more information.
