• Since CR is used as the message terminator, you must use ESC [ G
or ESC E to print a CR.
• The cursor row position is not affected by the currently selected
fo
nt. The display always has 4 rows, so when writing with the large
font, actually two rows are written to: the current one and the one
below it. You will need
two
ESC E commands to step from one row
to the next when using the large font.
• The cursor column position is affected by the currently selected
font. There
fore,
column 6
is 36 pixels from the left border only if you
last selected the 6x8 font; otherwise it could be 48 or 72 pixels from
the left border.
