Description
This code sequence allows simultaneous control of print features like the character size
and attributes characters. By this code sequence several print features can be simulta-
neously set via the value of n. This command can also be used to reset all character sty-
ling features or to reset the printer to standard Pica font type by specifying n=0.
The value specified for n must be in the range of 0 to 255. See the following table for pos-
sible values of n.
