Yes it is in the manual indeed. Anyway using ALT-SYSREQ and then 
flushing the printer by hitting 'P' hase some undesired results
sometimes on my system. After flushing I lowercase characters show up in
UPPERCASE and vice versa. Sometimes it can be fixed just with SHIFT
DDDD. Sometimes it doesn't I have to leave vpix. Running MS-WORD I am
then not capable to save the stuff, so I learned to save before...
