Begin 90 rotated font

1BH 50H 1H
<27> <80> <1>
&%RF{n=1}
&%RN{n=0}
[ESC] V <n>
This command rotates the print font by 90 . The print font is a one pass, 7 x 10
font. Enhanced, emphasized, subscript, superscript, and underline character
attributes are not available in this mode. Double-wide and double-high print are
available in 90 rotated mode. However, because the font is rotated, double-
wide print will make the characters taller and double-high print will make the
characters wider.
The current pitch sets the spacing between lines. If eight cpi is set, the printer
will produce the equivalent of eight lines per inch rotated print.
Print pitches greater than 12 cpi are small and difficult to read. This mode
prints faster than the formatted, rotated print mode. However, there is no
formatting in this mode.
Note: Line graphic characters (<176> to <223>) print unrotated.
EPOS Note: In EPOS mode if <n> = 0, rotation is turned off. If <n> = 1, the
pitch is set to ten cpi. If <n> = 2, the cpi is set to eight.
Begin 270 rotated font

This command rotates the print font by 270 . The print font is a one pass, 7 x
10 font. Enhanced, emphasized, subscript, superscript, and underline character
attributes are not available in this mode. Double-wide and double-high print are
available in 270 rotated mode. However, because the font is rotated, double-
wide print will make the characters taller and double high will make the
characters wider.
End rotated font
[ESC] P <0>

[ESC] V <n>
This command returns the print font to normal nonrotated mode.
Note: This command leaves the printer in utility mode.
