Chapter 1 Free Format
Control Code Equivalents
When Free Format is turned ON, GPL control code equivalents are treated as
actual ASCII control codes. For example ^! functions in the same ma nner as
the ASCII control code SOH. If control code characters need to be pa ssed to
the printer in Free Format Mode, use the control code equiv alents shown in
Table 1.
