TEXT DIR or NLQ DIR and GRAPHIC DIR specify whether the print head prints when travelling
in both directions (BI-DIR) or only one (UNI-DIR). Bi-directional printing is faster; unidirectional
printing can improve the alignment of successive print lines where this is critical; for example,
for graphics.

AGM MODE (Alternate Graphics Mode) is only available when IBM emulation is selected: the
effect is to change all line spacing from the 24 pin values (n160, n/180 inch) to 9 pin values (n/
72, n/2 16 inch), thus enabling the use of 9 pin graphics on a 24 pin printer.
