Epson FX Emulation

Underline Mode ESC - n

Selects underline mode for n=1, or cancels for n =0. This mode provides continuous underlining for all characters, including spaces.

Example: The following escape sequence will turn underlining on.

Escape Sequence:	ESC	-	1
Hexadecimal:	1B	2D	31
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.

Escape Sequence:	ESC	4
Hexadecimal:	1B	34
Cancel Italic Mode		ESC 5

Cancels italic mode. The MSB (most significant bit) of the following printable characters will be accepted as is. Italic characters may still be printed by transmitting characters with the MSB turned on.

Escape Sequence:	ESC	5
Hexadecimal:	1B	35
