Summary of Rotated Printing 
The table shows the combinations of Set/Cancel Upside-Down Print, Set/Cancel Rotated 
Print (clockwise), and Rotated Print (counterclockwise). Rotated CCW is mutually 
exclusive with the other two commands. Unintended consequences may result when 
rotated CCW is mixed with other commands. 
The samples of the print show only the normal size characters. Double-wide and double-
high characters are printed in the same orientation (double-high characters cannot be 
printed on the slip station). They may also be mixed on the same line.
