ESC D Down 1 row, with scroll
ESC E CR and cursor down 1 row with scroll
ESC M Up 1 row and scroll
NOTES:
 Since CR is used as the message terminator, you must use ESC [ G or ESC E to
print a CR.
 The cursor row position is not affected by the currently selected font. The
display always has 4 rows, so when writing with the large font, actually two rows
are written to: the current one and the one below it. You will need two ESC E
commands to step from one row to the next when using the large font.
 The cursor column position is affected by the currently selected font. Therefore,
column 6 is 36 pixels from the left border only if you last selected the 6x8 font;
otherwise it could be 48 or 72 pixels from the left border.

and the row below it using the 12x16 font which allows for two rows

ESC # 5 Normal font: subsequent characters are written using the 6x8 font,
which allows for four rows of sixteen characters on the display.
ESC # 7 Medium font: subsequent characters are written using the 8x8 font,
which allows for four rows of twelve characters on the display.
