This sequence allows the printing of all
characters, including characters with an
ASCII value below decimal 32. The printer
normally recognizes the ASCII values less
than decimal value 32 as control codes.
ESC \ allows the printer to print the
special symbols assigned to the ASCII
control codes. You can also use this
sequence to print characters between 128-159
(for Character Set 1). If the printer receives
a code value for an unassigned character, a
space character prints. No control code
functions operate when this sequence is in
effect. Refer to the "All Characters Chart"
in this section.
The total number of characters is equal
to n
1
+ (n
2
x 256).
