The command above selects or cancels the “immediate” print mode, where ou is a binary value of either OOhor Olh or an ASCII value of either “0” or “1”. If ou is set to OOhor “0”. then immediate printing is cancelled. If ou is set to Olh or “1”. then immediate printing is enabled. In immediate print mode, each character is sent straight to the print head as it is received from the host computer (unbuffered), and the paper moves up so that it is possible to read what is on the paper, similar to a typewriter.
