Interrupt Function
With the Interrupt function, a Graphics Pass may be interrupted at a 
designated vertical distance from the top of the pass to allow another Pass to 
begin printing at that location. The Interrupt command is not processed until a 
Pass Terminator is received. Any Code V commands between the Interrupt 
and the corresponding Pass Terminator will not be affected by the Interrupt. 
For example, in the Code V command sequence:
^M0202000Interrupts^I043^M0101031Can Be^-^M0101000Confusing^- 
prints:
The 0.2” x 0.2” characters Interrupts will print at the top of the pass. The 0.1” x 
0.1” characters Can Be will print 0.3” + 1 dot row from the top of the pass. The 
0.1” x 0.1” characters Confusing will print 0.4” + 3 dot rows from the top of the 
previous pass since Confusing is justified relative to the location of the 
Interrupt.
In contrast, in the Code V command sequence
^M0202000Interrupts^I043^-^M0101031Can Be^_^M0101000Confusing^- 
prints:
The 02” x 0.2” characters Interrupts will print at the top of the Pass. The 0.1” x 
0.1” characters Can Be will print 0.7” + 4 dot rows from the top of the previous 
Pass since Can Be is justified relative to the location of the Interrupt (0.4” + 3 
dot rows below the top of the pass). The 0.1” x 0.1” characters Confusing will 
print 0.8” + 4 dot rows from the top of the previous pass.
The format for an Interrupt function is:
Command ^Ixxd
Arguments
^I
Indicates the Interrupt function.
xx
Increments of 0.1 inches from the top of the 
Graphics Pass down to where data is inserted. The 
range is 00 to 99.
d
Additional distance in dot rows. The range is 0 to 9.
NOTE: ^I000 prints out all of the interrupted passes.
