To Exit The P-Series Plot Mode; Combining Graphics And Text - Printronix P3000 Series User's Reference Manual

To Exit the P–Series Plot Mode
When returning to the print mode from the P–Series Plot Mode, include an extra line feed in the data
stream to maintain proper print line registration relative to the last line of plot graphics. If the extra line
feed is not included, the first character line after the graphics data may be truncated, as shown in Figure
Figure 4–10.
@ABCDEFGHIJKLMNOPQR
In this example, a text line follows
plot data, preceded by a single line ter-
minator code. (Text characters extend
into the range of the previously printed
plot line and appear truncated.)

Combining Graphics and Text

The printer can combine Serial Matrix Bit Image graphics and characters (text) on the same line.
P–Series graphics and printable symbols cannot be intermixed on the same line.
