AN parameter is set to a value of "2", the character spacing will be fixed / non-proportional.
A setting of "3" will print both fixed/non-proportional character spacing and reversed text.

3 Fixed / Non-proportional Character Spacing and Reverse Video
8 Auto Reverse Video: Character cell = BLACK, Character = WHITE
4.7 Line Draw
It is possible to design lines into a label utilizing some of the elements of label format fields.
Specifically, a TCI value of "6" enables the line draw function. XB and XY provide a starting
position for a line draw. CMX and CMY provide length and thickness to a line. Other
elements not necessary to draw a line such as CC, CGN, FO, FJ, CS, and AN are ignored
by simply adding delimiters (commas) without values.
An example of two lines drawn on a label is shown in Figure 4-5. This 3 x 3" label was
designed for a printer with a 300 DPI print head.
