ESC G - Double-strike mode setting
Itieli§O.,.it.hl CHR$(27); "G";
U!uiiih.UI
Sets Double-strike print mode.
When this code input, all the data stored in the printer buffer is
printed out and then the data following this code is printed in
Double-strike print mode.
In this mode, the printer will complete one line of printing by two
passes of the print head while advancing the paper by about 1/216
inch between the first pass and the second pass. For this reason, the
printer performs paper feeding adjustment to maintain the absolute
length and number of lines of a page.
This eliminates the vertical gap between dots, thereby enabling
high-quality printing.
