Select Character Table; Select Condensed Printing - Printronix P7000 H-Series Programmer's Reference Manual

Select Character Table

ASCII Code ESC t n
Hex Code 1B 74 n
Dec Code 27 116 n
Purpose Selects the character table to be used for printing among the
two character tables described below:
n = 0 or 48
Character table 0
n = 1 or 49
Character table 1
Where:
0 <= n <= 1, 48 <= n <= 49
Currently, the setting on the front panel of "Alt. Set 80-9F"
determines whether n = 0 would be treated as Control Code or
Printable Code. Thus, this determines the setting n = 1.
Comment This command affects the front panel setting of "Character Set."

Select Condensed Printing

ASCII Code SI
Hex Code 0F
Dec Code 15
Purpose Enters condensed mode, in which character width is reduced
as follows:

proportional spacing is selected with the ESC p command.
