Exiting P–Series Plot Mode

When you want to return to the print mode from the P–Series Plot mode, include an extra line feed in the data stream to maintain proper print line registration relative to the last line of plot graphics. If the extra line feed is not included, the first character line after the graphics data may be truncated, as shown in Figure 5–11.

In this example, a text line follows plot data, preceded by a single line terminator code. (Text characters extend into the range of the previously printed plot line and appear truncated.)

This example shows a text line following plot data, but preceded by an additional line terminator code. (Characters are able to be printed full–height.)
