Prints upside-down characters. The character order is inverted in the buffer so text is
readable. The command remains in effect until the Rotated Print (1B 12) command is
received. Only bit 0 is used. Bits 1-7 are not used. See Summary of Rotated Printing in this
document for more information.
Example:
• MSComm1.Output = Chr$(&H1B) & Chr$(&H7B) & Chr$(n)
