Where <n> is the printer address. Addresses of A, B, or C are configurable.
Description The printer must be addressed in multi-drop mode. [SOH] <n> is the addressing command. If the
printer is configured with an address of 'A,' it operates when addressed. When any other address
is sent to the printer, it enters print suppress mode. An address of 'Z' is a universal address that
activates the printer.

Description
The [ESC] y <n> command enables and disables command set features.
It is possible that the IPCL commands will interfere with print data. If this occurs, the IPCL can
be disabled with an [ESC] y <4> command.
Note 1
Once IPCL commands are disabled, the Enable IPLC command will not be a valid IPCL code.
Note 2
[ESC] y <0>, <1>, <2>, and <3> allow the printer to switch between emulation modes. When the
switch takes place, the current print buffer is printed, and the printer reinitializes.
commands do not permanently change the configuration. A power on reset restores the mode that
was configured in menu mode. A reset by command or from the INIT pin does not restore the
mode.
Note 3 [ESC] y <6> and <7> enable and disable the inquire process. These commands are not processed
as they are received, but are buffered then processed. The buffering process allows inquire
commands sent after a disable to be answered. In addition, inquires sent after an enable may not
be answered. (See additional notes 3 and 4 on the next page).
