Rob, here is an "initialization" code I find in our drivers; what is what I don't know, but will contain the reset-code somewhere (I think).

For a HP Laserjet 4GL :

CHR(27)+"E"+CHR(27)+"&l0O"+CHR(27)+"(12U"+CHR(27)+"&l6D"                                            

Here is the sequence for "large font" :

CHR(27)+"(s0p12.0h0s0b4102T"                                               

whereas here is the code for a smaller font :

CHR(27)+"(s0p16.0h0s0b4102T"                                               

so the 12 and the 16 is the difference here.
Note that this is a portrait-driver, so maybe this is somewhere in here too.

For a HP Laserjet II or III the same as above (no init-sequence in our driver, sorry) :

Large font :

CHR(27)+"(10U"+CHR(27)+"(s0p12h0v0s0b6T"+CHR(27)+"&k9.79H"                 

smaller font :

CHR(27)+"(10U"+CHR(27)+"(s0p15h0s0b0T"+CHR(27)+"&k6.84H"                   

so here's more difference.

I hope you can make something of this.
