Details • When specifing both Bit 4 and Bit 5 described in the table above, the double-height and double-width size characters are printed.

•The dot pitch of underline is 2 dot pitch. However, if the several underlines with the different thicknesses exist in one line, the thickness of those underlines will be brought into line with the thickest underline.

•Each setting is not related to the previous settings.

•The settings of the characters except for the bold characters and the font are valid only for the standard size characters.

•In default, n = 0.
