This command allows you to modify the character's font and style of pitch type.
The values 2 and 0 are constants. If font and pitch locks are active, this command is ignored. To select the
values for the variables m and n, which identify the pitch and the font type style to use, refer to the table
below.
1. Identify the type style (pitch and font) to use in the left column (pitch).
2. For the hexadecimal values of m and n, look across the row to the second column (Hex mn)
3. For the decimal values for m and n, look across the row to the third column (Decimal mn).
4. Substitute these values for m and n in the printer command syntax.
