data in one of the alphanumeric commands. Reverse printing
(discussed on page 110) can be combined with shading.
When the shading feature is used, only certain dot positions are
printed (versus every dot position in the normal graphics) which
produces the shaded images. The shading

can be changed
using the Shading Mask command discussed on page 116.
