Notes:
1. The LPD command accepts logical page values from 0001 to 7FFF for this parameter. However,
attempts to print outside the intersection of the physical medium (as defined by the Set Media Size
command) and the logical page result in an error.
2. If the Ordered Page Flag is on, this indicates to the printer that subsequent data is in order and can
print as it is received. If page data is unordered, printing is deferred (buffered), because the printer
must place the received data in the proper sequence.
3. The high-order 9 bits of the two byte fields 18-19 and 1A-1B are interpreted as a 9-bit binary value that
describes the orientation of the X and Y axes.
4. If bytes 1C-1D and bytes 20-21 are all 0, each line begins at the leftmost print position for 0, 90
orientation and rightmost print position for 180, 90 orientation.
5. The S828 Printer can print right-to-left by selecting a 180, 90 degree orientation within the Load Page
Descriptor command or within the Set Text Orientation control sequence. The S828 Printer forces an
inline sequence of 180 degrees for the default font to maintain upright printing when right-to-left
printing is selected.
Figure 12 shows how the Logical Page Descriptor command defines the logical page.
