Select Italic Mode
Selects italic mode. This causes italic characters to be printed by setting the MSB
(most significant bit) of all following printable characters to one. The effect is to map
characters from the bottom half (non-italic) of the font to the top half (italic) of the
font. For this to work correctly, an Epson FX font must be selected (see ESC k). The
other available fonts do not include italic characters.
