3 – 2
Your printer produces bold type by printing each dot of a character twice instead of
once. In emphasized printing, the pairs of dots are offset horizontally, enhanced
printing is produced with a vertical offset.
You can combine enhanced and emphasized printing for an especially bold effect. For
headlines, try using them in combination with double width characters. You can also
combine emphasized printing with double height characters.

This command allows you to select a typeface. The resident Courier typeface is your
printer’s default. (A resident font is built into the printer, as opposed to those that are
available on optional font cards.) If you want to select OCR-A or OCR-B you must
have the appropriate font card installed. You can switch easily between resident and
font card typefaces by substituting the appropriate value for the variable in this escape
sequence. You can also use Menu Select mode or the FONT button on the printer’s
control panel to select resident or font card typefaces.
