Journal mode
Journal mode is a station select command. All data sent to the printer, following the journal mode select command,
is stored in the EJ as a single record. Any control commands sent to the electronic journal will end the journal entry.
An EOT, NUL or any printer command will end journal mode. Typically an EOT, CAN or station select will be
used to end the journal mode.
