7.5.3 Enabling Italic Simulation

The FS_OCD_ITALIC_ON box contains the command which enables italic simulations for a printer.

For the Diconix 150 Plus printer, the Italic Mode On command (ESC4) enables italic simulations.

To specify the Italic Mode On command, type the following in the FS_OCD_ITALIC_ON box:

HP LaserJet IIP

For the HP LaserJet IIP, in the FS_OCD_ITALIC_ON box, the font-style command is (ESC(snS). If n is 1, the characters are italicized; if n is 0, the characters are plain text.

To specify italic output, type the following in the FS_OCD_ITALIC_ON box:
