Comments: • MODE. Determines the interpretation mode as follows: 0 Interprets each byte as a character (8-bit mode where the default row_number equals "0"). Computed character code is equal to (row_number * 256) + 8-bit code sent in LB or SM command. 1 Interprets the next two bytes as a character (16-bit mode). LB and SM commands will read two bytes to form one 2-byte character code equal to (first_byte * 256) + second_byte. Label terminator and 8-bit control codes must be preceded by a NULL byte. To turn symbol mode off while in 16-bit mode, you must send SM; where NULL is ASCII or decimal 0. 2 Same logic as mode 0, except that vertical substitutes are used if found in a VT segment of the current font. Characters are rotated counter clock-wise to match the vertical-rotated printing mode of the Character Text Path Direction command. Default row_number equals "0". 3 Same input logic as mode 1, except that vertical substitutes are used if found in a VT segment of the current font. Full width characters are rotated counter clock-wise to match the vertical-rotated printing mode of the Character Text Path Direction command. 2-98 Printer-Specific Differences ENWW
