BACKSPACE (Epson mode only)
BASIC
Hex
chr$(8)

The backspace does just what it sounds like. It moves the print head
back one space enabling
you to print another character over the
previous 'one.
It is a handy way to create special symbols and
unusual effects.
When the printer is in Commodore mode, chr$(8) initiates Bit
Image graphic printing mode.
Example:
10 open 1,4,7
20 pt~int#l,cht~$(27) "WI"
30 pt"'int#1, "FUTURE PRINT";
40 for n=l to 12:print#1,chr$(S);:next n
50 pt·'int#l, cht~$ (27) "4"; "FUTURE PRINT"
60 pt~int#l, chl·~$ (27) "@"
