n Uni-directional printing

Uni-directional printing means printing in one direction only. Your printer normally prints when the printhead is moving in both directions. But once in a while you may have an application such as making tables where you are more concerned with how the vertical lines align than with how fast it prints. The printer lets you make this choice. The table below shows the commands for controlling how the printer prints.

			Table 6-2
		Printing	direction commands
		Function		Control code
Print	in one	direction	< ESC >	“U”	1
Print	in both	directions	< ESC >	“U”	0

One time print in one direction <ESC> “<”

Try this program to see the difference that printing in one

direction makes.
