• Esc W 0 cancels double-width printing mode set using the Esc W 1 instruction, the SO control code
or the Esc SO instruction.
LPRINT CHR$(27); CHR$(87); CHR$(1); 'Set double-width printing mode
Select single-line double-width printing (I)
SO (27)

printed using double-width characters and with the line spacing setting doubled.
• The following commands cancel double-width printing mode set using the SO control code: LF, FF,
VT, Esc W 0, DC4, and ESC @.
• If the "auto LF" (automatic line feed) function has been turned on from the control panel, the carriage
