Tab stop values which are not in ascending numerical order are
discarded. The zero value terminates the tab stop sequence.
ESC D followed by 0 will
clear
all tab stops. Tabs are set in every
eight columns beginning with column 9 when the printer is initial-
ized or an ESC
R command
is
processed.
For
example, to set
horizontal tab stops in printer column positions
10,
20,

ESC E
Begin Horizontal Emphasized Printing
ESC
E changes
the printer
to horizontal emphasized printing
mode. This mode is used to simulate the appearance
of
text
which is printed in emphasized mode on a wire matrix
printer.
Text is emphasized by expanding each character slightly in the
horizontal direction within
its
assigned
character
position to give
it
a bolder or darker
appearance.
Vertical and horizontal empha-
sized
printing modes may be combined to enlarge
the character
in both
the vertical
and horizontal direction. This gives the char-
acter an even bolder
or darker
appearance. Horizontal empha-
sized printing is ended by the ESC F
(End
Horizontal Emphasized
Printing) command or when the printer is initialized.
LPRINT CHR$(27)
;CHR$
(69)
;
ESC
F
End Horizontal Emphasized Printing
4-30
This
command
ends horizontal emphasized printing mode started
by the ESC E
(Begin
Horizontal Emphasized
Printing) command.
