Superscript/Subscript Printing

	ASCII	Hex	Decimal
P-Series	SFCC S n	SFCC 53 n	SFCC 83 n
Serial	ESC S n	1B 53 n	27 83 n
Purpose	Selects superscript or subscript printing.
where	n = 0 to enable superscript printing (hex 00 or hex 30)
	n = 1 to enable subscript printing (hex 01 or hex 31)
Comment	Super/Subscript font prints at one-half the normal vertical character height
	and at twice the normal vertical density. When the super/subscript control
	code is received, all characters will be superscript or subscript until reset by

the super/subscript reset control code or printer reset. Emphasized print is ignored in the super/subscript print mode.

In Serial Matrix protocol, or when the BS feature is enabled from the control panel in P-Series protocol, both superscript and subscript characters can be printed in the same character column using the Backspace (BS) control code (page 6-7).

Caution should be used when combining Superscript or Subscript printing with other print attributes such as Elongated (Double High), or small line spacing; overlapping lines may occur. Characters with different horizontal or vertical dot densities will not overlap.

Example The following sample program illustrates superscript/subscript printing and reset.
