PION

The Data Bit 8 Paper Instruction On command;

 

enter PION. When this command is sent, 7 data

 

bits are allowed; data bit 8 is enabled as the paper

 

instruction.

 

When data bit 8 is set high, the PION command

 

slews paper. When data bit 8 is set low, the PION

 

command prints data characters.

PIOFF

The Data Bit 8 Paper Instruction Off command;

 

enter PIOFF. When this command is sent, 8 data

 

bits are allowed for character data because data bit

 

8 is disabled as the paper instruction. Subsequent

 

occurrences of data bit 8 in the data stream cause

 

printing from the extended character set.
