charts provide information on what to expect from the control codes
and escape sequences in each printing mode.

These sequences do not affect the printing mode in
progress, but take effect when normal printing
resumes.
A –ACTIVE
This sequence takes effect immediately.
D –DATA
These control codes are used as data.
