Text and Logotype Orientation

decimal

 

Changes the orientation of text and logotypes.

n1 = 0 Gives portrait orientation

n1 = 1 Gives landscape orientation

n1 = 2 Gives upside down portrait orientation

n1 = 3 Gives upside down landscape orientation

Portrait and landscape or upside down portrait and upside down landscape can be mixed on the same printout. There are two cursors, one for portrait and one for landscape. The cursor always starts at the top left corner of the document. Looking at the paper when it exits the printer, the portrait cursor is at the top left corner of the printout, moving to the right as text is typed, while the landscape cursor is at the top right corner, moving downwards.

Note • The upside-down orientations (n1 = 2 and n1 = 3) were introduced in firmware version 3.27g. They can only be used with Fixed Document mode.
