Software and Printer Compatibility Your software sends information and instructions to the printer over the cable that connects the printer to the computer. In addition to data, the instructions you send may include special command sequences known as control codes and ESCape sequences. These command sequences tell the printer such things as how many lines to skip and where to start printing. Some control codes are standard throughout the microcomputer industry and are recognized by all printers. Two examples of these are form feed (FF) and line feed (LF). ESCape sequences are unique to each printer emulation. ESCape sequences begin with the ESCape character (ESC) followed by one or more other characters. The ESCape character tells the printer not to print the next character (s), but to use the information to perform a printing control task, such as printing in bold or underlining. Most software programs automatically send control codes and ESCape sequences to the printer. However, some applications may require you to supply the commands. How you enter the control codes and ESCape sequences depends on your software program. Your software program may require you to enter the codes and sequences in a
