Your printer produces bold type by printing each dot of a character twice instead of once. In
emphasized printing, the pairs of dots are offset horizontally. In enhances printing, the pairs of
dots are offset vertically.
You can combine emphasized and enhanced printing for an especially bold effect. For
headlines, try using them in combination with double width characters; you can also combine
emphasized printing with double height characters.

horizontal tab.
In the Epson emulation, you can also use the Combined Print Mode (ESC ! n) command to
engage underlining.
