Emulations
When a printer understands the control set written for another printer
type, it is said to emulate the other printer. Your printer emulates, i.e.
“understands” the Olivetti PR2, the Epson and the IBM emulation in
its standard version.
Escape sequences Escape sequences or control codes tell the printer that the following
transmitted code is a printer command and not a printable character.
They allow the selection of printer functions or the changing of printer
parameters from the computer. By transmitting an escape sequence,
you are able to change the previously set configuration of the printer
(e.g. character set).
This chapter contains an introduction into the sequences and control
codes which are used by your printer.
The settings made by escape sequences have priority over the
settings made in menu mode; therefore they override these.
