Summary of Rotated Printing
The table shows the combinations of Set/Cancel Upside-Down Print, Set/Cancel Rotated
Print (clockwise), and Rotated Print (counterclockwise). Rotated CCW is mutually
exclusive with the other two commands.
The samples of the print show only the normal size characters. Double-wide and double-
high characters are printed in the same orientation. They may also be mixed on the same
line.

Graphics Commands
These commands are used to enter and print graphics data and are described in order of
their hexadecimal codes:
Set Absolute Starting Position
Sets the print starting position for graphics at the specified number of dots from the
beginning of the line as expressed in the following formula: n = ((n1 + (256 x n2)) x 2). The
resulting dot column must be less than 448. The print starting position is reset to column
one after each line.
This command emulates the Epson LQ-950™ dot matrix printer. This allows the 7193 to
accept graphics that are normally output from word processing programs to a half-dot
matrix printer.
Hexadecimal Decimal ASCII
1B 24 n1 n2 27 36 n1 n2ESC $ n1 n2
n = Number of half dots to be moved from the beginning of the line
Note: The 7193 converts two half-dots to one full dot
n1 = Remainder after dividing n by 256
n2 = Integer after dividing n by 256
