USING  THE EDGE POLYGON COMMAND

     
     The Edge Polygon ( EP ) command outlines any polygon
     that is currently in the polygon buffer. This includes
     wedges and rectangles defined using the EA , ER , EW ,
     RA , RR , and WG commands. EP accesses the data in the
     polygon buffer, but does not clear the buffer or change
     the data in any way.  For more information see the PCL
     5 Printer Language Technical Reference Manual.
     
          NOTE:  The last polygon drawn is stored
                 in the polygon buffer. This is
                 where EP finds the information
                 it needs to edge a polygon.

     EcE                           Resets the printer.
     
     Ec%0B                         Enters HP-GL/2 mode.
     
     IN;                           Initializes HP-GL/2 mode.
     
     SP1;                          Selects pen number 1,
                                   (black). Even though
                                   there is no physical pen,
                                   the SP command must be
                                   used to enable printing.
     
     PA2000,10;                    Selects absolute plotting
                                   mode and moves the pen to
                                   (2000,10).
     
     PM0;PD10,2000,10,10,2000,10;PM1;   Enters polygon mode,
                                   stores a pen down
                                   command, stores points
                                   (10,2000), (10,10), and
                                   (2000,10), then closes
                                   the polygon.
     
     PU610,610;CI500;PM2;          While still in polygon
                                   mode, lifts the pen and
                                   moves to (610,610). Draws
                                   a circle with a diameter
                                   of 500 plu, then closes
                                   the current subpolygon
                                   and exits polygon mode.
     
     EP;                           Outlines the polygon that
                                   was just stored in the
                                   buffer.
     
     Ec%0A                         Enters the PCL mode.
     
     EcE                           Sends a reset to end the
                                   job and eject the page.
