The 473 follows basically the same command codes as the IBM graphics printer
and the Epson FX/MX/QX/ZX/XX/YX/ETCX/ETCX printers, so you should be able
to find the codes no problem.  Here's a quick summary anyway:
	Function		Decimal Code(s)
	--------		---------------
	Compressed On			15
	Compressed Off			18
	Emphasized (NLQ) On	     27,69
	Emphasized (NLQ) Off	     27,70
	Double strike on	     27,71
	Double strike off	     27,72

Hope this helps.
