Purpose

Selects bold character printing.

 

Comment

When the bold character printing control code is received, all characters are printed

 

in bold until reset by the bold print reset control code or printer reset. Bold Print is

 

the same as printing double strike. Bold character printing may reduce print speed to

 

half.

 

 

 

SFCC j selects bold print for the current line only. When this code is received, all

 

characters are printed in bold until reset by the bold print reset control code, printer

 

reset, or a paper motion command.

 

 

Superscript or subscript characters implement the bold function with a vertical

 

“shadow” rather than a double strike. The bold attribute has no affect on superscript

 

or subscript characters themselves.

 

Example

The following sample program illustrates bold character printing.
