Epson ActionPrinter 4500 User Manual page 112

In double-strike mode, the print head prints each line twice, making the
text bolder. For even greater boldness, emphasized and double- strike
can be combined. The following samples show the different effects you
can achieve using these modes alone and in combination.
Italic printing
You can print italics by using the ESC 4 software command. This is true
no matter how DIP switch 1-7 is set.
Underlining, strike-through, and overlining
The underline, strike-through, and overline modes are useful for
highlighting selected text. This feature can be used to score spaces,
subscripts, and superscripts without a break. You can choose from a
variety of line styles, including single, double, broken, or continuous.
See the ESC ( - command in Chapter 9 for more information.
