Does anyone know why certain escape sequences might not work on a
Diablo 630?? For example, the manual we have says that an ESC-P should
turn on proportional spacing. It is listed in the chart as an
uppercase 'P' however there is a note stating "Uppercase letters on
pages 24 and 25 should be struck in lowercase mode.". I have tried
this with both upper and lowercase 'P' and neither seems to do
anything. I have similar problems with ESC-O (bolding), ESC-E
(underscore) and several others. Some escape sequences work correctly,
however. I know the printer is capable of doing those functions as our
Xerox-customized version of WordStar uses them. Is there anything
special that needs to be done to enable these codes??

                               Thanks in advance,
                               Rick
