As I recall, you can string a series of PCL commands together (as long
as they all start with the same prefix) by using a lower case letter on
them, with the final one being capital.

ie: (this is not necessarily meaningful, just an example)

    ESC & 123 X ESC & 456 Y ESC & 789 Z

can be shortened to:

    ESC & 123 x 456 y 789 Z
