ASCII Code ESC [ Ps1 ; n2 SP B
Hex Code 1B 5B Ps1 3B n2 20 42
Dec Code 27 91 Ps1 109 n2 32 66
Purpose Ps1 multiplies height; n2 multiplies width.
Discussion The Character Expansion control sequence allows characters to be
multiplied in both height and width.
Multiply Height
The printer prints double and triple height characters by expanding the single
height character matrix to produce twice or three times the number of vertical
dots per character, respectively. Blank lines are expanded to either twice or
three times the normal height, equal to the height requested. To alter
character height, choose from the following options:
Current Vertical

When double/triple height mode is selected, the printer expands vertical print
until the feature is disabled. This feature can be combined with double width
characters. Mixing single height, double and triple height characters on the
same horizontal line is allowable.
