Introduction
1.0 Manual Overview
This manual is designed for users who wish to create their own label production software. Operators without
programming experience may prefer to use a label-creation software package.
This manual explains in detail the Datamax-O’Neil Ticket Programming Language (DTPL), how to write
programs that will enable Datamax-O’Neil Ticket printers to create ticket formats (designs), and allow the user to
control the operation of the printer. Ticket formats that have been created can be printed, stored, and edited.
1.1 Ticket Orientation
Each ticket is made up of a matrix of dot rows and dot columns. The starting position on each ticket is row 0,
column 0 (0,0). This is the left top-most corner of a ticket. The end of the ticket is the bottom right-hand corner.
Data can be printed anywhere on the ticket by specifying a row and column location.
Characters can be rotated in any of the four directions:
Non-rotated (NR) characters are printed across the ticket from left to right.
Rotated right (RR) characters are printed down the ticket from top to bottom.
Rotated upside down (RU) characters are printed across the ticket from right to left
Rotated left (RL) characters are printed up the ticket from bottom to the top.
1.2 Inverted Characters
An EI (enable inversion) command turns on the inverted mode. All of the following data (except bar codes) will
be inverted until a DI (disable inversion) command is sent.
A black border will be added around the characters to improve its readability. Therefore, an inverted character is
slightly larger than a normal character. This should be remembered when positioning characters beneath inverted
characters with row/column commands.
DTPL Programmer’s Manual 1
1.3 Bar Codes
The following highlights some key points on printing barcodes:
All available barcodes (Code 39, Interleaved 2of5, EAN13, EAN8, UPC, USS-Codabar, and Code 128, can
be printed via command codes. Barcodes can be printed in either ladder or picket fence orientations. Ladder
bar codes can be printed top to bottom (RR) or bottom to top (RL). Picket fence bar codes can be printed left
to right (NR) or right to left (RU).
All bar codes should be selected by specifying the starting address, bar code size, orientation and type of bar
code. Most bar codes are built using bars 8 dots high and 1 dot wide. The height of the bar can be changed in
units of 8 using the bar code size command.
All bar codes can be expanded from their normal bar width of one dot by using the expanded (X) command.
This command does not affect the height of the bar code.
A human readable interpretation line can also be selected by sending a BI (bar code interpretation) command.
For more information on bar codes see Section 8.0
1.4 Graphics
Graphics mode allows the user to turn on or off any dot on a ticket. Using this mode you can create your own
images, shapes or logos. Each graphic character is one byte of data. Each dot can be positioned by using the same
row/column commands.
NOTE: The host to printer interface must be configured for eight bit data length in order to use dot addressable
graphics.
DTPL Programmer’s Manual 2
DTPL Command Sequences
2.0 Introduction
The printer can accept a wide variety of commands to control the printing of data. A command sequence performs
a unique function and many different sequences can be sent for each string to be printed.
A command is distinguished from text by the < > characters. Any data sent between these markers is interpreted
as command data. The field data (to be printed on the ticket) is sent with no markers. Every command sequence
must be bracketed with the < > characters, (ex. <HW2,2><RC10,30>).

DTPL File Commands
4.0 Introduction
The printer supports three modes of file storage:
Resident: Files are stored in EPROM memory by the printer.
Permanent: Files are stored in Flash memory by the user.
Temporary: Files are stored in RAM.
All files downloaded to the printer are initially stored as permanent files. The storage mode can be changed with
one of the following DTPL commands:
Default Permanent file - <pf>
Default Temporary file - <tf>
Permanent file - <PF>
Temporary file - <TF>
The lower case storage mode commands change the printer’s default mode, while the upper case commands
modify the printer’s file storage mode until modified by the next storage mode command.
RESIDENT FILES
Resident fonts are printed with the <F#> command and resident logos are printed with the <LO#> command.
Resident fonts can't be removed. Resident files are usually only factory installed.
PERMANENT AND TEMPORARY FILES
The printer automatically assigns a sequential ID# to all permanent and temporary files unless the files are
preceded with a valid <ID#> command. The first two soft fonts loaded would be referenced as <SF1> and
<SF2>, respectively. The first two logos loaded would be referenced as <LD1> and <LD2>, respectively.
Permanent files are stored in flash and therefore will be saved if the printer is turned off. Temporary files are
stored in ram and will be lost if the printer is turned off.
The <ID#> command is used to assign an ID number to soft fonts and logos.
The delete file command <DF#> is used to delete permanent and temporary files.
<DF#> command format:
1 - delete all permanent and temporary files.
2 - delete all temporary files.
3 - delete all permanent and temporary soft fonts.
4 - delete all temporary soft fonts.
5 - delete all permanent and temporary logo files.
6 - delete all temporary logo files.
7 - delete individual soft font file.
8 - delete individual logo file.

DTPL Print Commands
5.0 Introduction
The following table lists the printer’s various print commands.
Command Format Description
Print / Cut Ticket <p> The printer will cut the ticket after printing if it has a cutter.
Print / No Cut Ticket <q> The printer will not cut the ticket after printing even if it has a cutter.
Print Ticket And Eject <z> The printer will eject the ticket after the ticket is cut.
Print / Cut (Hold Ticket
Image)
Print / No Cut (Hold
Ticket Image)
<h> Allows the user to update a number of fields on the ticket without re-transmitting all of
the data. When this command is used, the printer will hold the print image in memory.
Only text and bar codes can be updated on a 'held' ticket.
<r> The ticket is not cut until a normal print command (<p> or FF) is sent.

DTPL Downloading Commands
7.0 Downloading Commands
Logos can originate in one of two manners. They can be permanently stored in the printer's memory before
leaving the factory (<LO#> command) or the customer can download them directly (<LD#> command). If the
printer is in permanent file mode then all logos downloaded by the user will be automatically stored in Flash.
They will still be available even after the printer is turned off.
RESIDENT FACTORY LOGOS
To print a factory logo, you could send the following:
<SP60,170><LO1>
The above command will print the first factory loaded logo locating it at row/column position 60,170.
NOTE: Factory logos are a customer-specified option and are not present on most printers.
DOWNLOADABLE LOGOS
The printer is capable of receiving downloaded logo data and recalling it throughout the day. The download logo
data must be in either the DTPL image format described below or the PCX format.
DTPL IMAGE FORMAT
This data is comprised mostly of DTPL graphics commands. The downloaded data must be sent in strict
accordance with the following rules.
The logo should be drawn such that the left-topmost corner is considered to be position 0,0. To enter download
mode, send the following:
ESC
<RC0,0>
<G#>byte 1,byte 2, ... byte #
<RCx,y> or CR
<G#>byte 1,byte 2, ... byte #
.
.
ESC
All download logo data is bracketed by ESC characters. Following the ESC, the printer expects to receive a
row/column command (preferably <RC0,0>). The <G#> tells the printer how many bytes of logo data are to
follow. The following # bytes should be sent without any commas. The commas are used for clarity in this
example.
DTPL Programmer’s Manual 13
The above routine should be repeated for each line of logo data. For the remaining lines, a CR should be used in
place of the row/column command if the data is to start at the beginning of the next line. If you use carriage
returns, the logo can be expanded simply by using the <HW#,#> command. Each carriage return will move the
next line down 8 dots. If you use row/column commands to position each line of logo data, you can't expand the
logo.
To load additional logos, repeat the above procedure for each logo. The logos will automatically be assigned the
next consecutive number unless the <ID#> command is used. The printer will accept a maximum of 128k bytes of
downloadable data.
NOTE: The printer's total capacity of downloadable space is for both logos and fonts.
PRINT DOWNLOADED LOGOS
To print a downloaded logo #2 starting at row/column position 50,120 send:
<SP50,120><LD2>
DOWNLOADING IN ASCII FORMAT
Downloading of logos can be done in ASCII format just like ASCII graphics. It follows all of the above rules
except that a small g is used instead of a capital G and the bytes of data are represented as ASCII characters not
decimal.
DOWNLOADING PCX SUPPLEMENT
PCX files are a commonly found format used by image and paint programs. These files can be downloaded
directly as is to the printer as long as they are preceded with a small DTPL string. The only restriction on the PCX
file is that it must be saved in the 1-bit format. This is the normal format for non-color images. The PCX file can
be downloaded to the printer for use later on as a logo or it can be sent as a PCX graphics file to be printed
immediately. To print the PCX file immediately, send the following command string:
<SP#,#><pcx><G#>pcx bytes.
The pcx must be in lowercase letters. The <SP#,#> command positions the image. If no starting point is sent, the
image will start at point 0,0. The # in the G command is equal to the number of bytes in the entire PCX file.
After the <G#> you must send the actual PCX file. There must not be any extra characters sent! For example, if
the PCX file contained 3500 bytes you would send a <G3500> command followed by the 3500 bytes.
To download the PCX file for use later on as a logo, follow the same procedure as above but send an esc character
(27d) both before and after the PCX data stream. esc<pcx><G#>pcx bytes esc.
This image can then be printed using the normal logo printing commands like <SP20,20><LD1><p>. All PCX
images can be rotated, multiplied and scaled just like any DTPL font.
PCX VS DTPL IMAGE FORMAT
The printer handles both 1-bit PCX files and DTPL image files. PCX files take up less room in memory than the
corresponding DTPL image. Therefore, more logos can fit in memory if they are in PCX format than in the DTPL
format. However, since the PCX files are saved in compressed form they must be decompressed and converted to
the DTPL Image format by the printer before the image is printed. Because of this internal converting, it takes a
little longer to print a PCX image. For most images, the difference in printing speed is insignificant.
DTPL Programmer’s Manual 14
DTPL TEXT LOGO (MACRO) SUPPLEMENT
The printer can store a string of DTPL commands (a macro) in memory as if they were a downloaded logo image.
These commands could then be used later on to print a ticket by using a print logo command.
However, instead of printing a logo image it will print a ticket according to the DTPL commands previously sent.
This is a handy feature when most of the tickets have the same format and only a few lines are different. It is also
useful in cutting down the communication time needed to print each ticket. In order for the DTPL commands to
be stored in memory and not be acted on immediately, you must bracket the DTPL string with esc(27d)
characters. The bracketed DTPL string is then considered an DTPL logo.

DTPL Programmer’s Manual 16
Barcodes
8.0 Barcodes
UPC
UPC (version A) is a numeric only code which contains a left hand border character, 6 left hand characters, a
center character, 6 right hand characters and a right border character. The letter U is used to select UPC bar code.
The border and center characters are defined as follows:
Left Border J
Center K
Right Border L
A typical data stream for printing UPC ladder bar code is as follows:
"<RC0,70><X2><UL5>J501234K567890L"
The following data will generate a 5 unit wide (40 dots) expanded bar code. The bar code will represent the
numbers 501234 and 567890 separated by the guard markers. It will start in row 0 and column 70 and build down
and towards the left. There will be no interpretation printed.
A typical data stream for printing UPC picket fence bar code with interpretation is as follows
"<RC0,70><X2><BI><UP5>J501234K567890L"
EAN8 - This code is really an 8 digit UPC code. A typical EAN8 ladder code follows:
"<RC0,70><X2><UL5>J1234K5678L"
The same bar code printed in the opposite direction would be as follows:
"<RL><RC200,70><X2><uL5>J1234K5678L"
I 2 OF 5
Interleaved 2 of 5 bar code is a numeric only bar code. All I 2 of 5 bar codes must contain an even number of
characters and are bracketed by a stop and start character. The character is the colon (:). The letter F is used to
select interleaved two of five bar code. Note: this bar code can be printed in either a 2:1 or 3:1 wide to narrow
ratio. The following are 2:1 ratio commands (the default value).
A typical picket fence bar code would be sent as follows:
"<RC0,10><X2><FP3>:123456:"
The above prints a 3 unit high (24 dots) bar code starting at row 0 column 10. The bar code will extend down and
to the right from the initial row and column position.
DTPL Programmer’s Manual 17
A typical ladder orientation bar code with interpretation and a default width of 4 would be sent as follows.
"<RC0,70><FL>:123456:"
An expanded (doubled) version of the above bar code would be as follows:
"<RC0,70><FL><X2>:123456:"
A 3:1 ratio of the above expanded (doubled) version would be as follows:
"<RC0,70><FXL><X2>:123456:"
EAN13
EAN13 is a numeric only bar code. All EAN13 codes must contain a variable parity bit followed by a front guard
character (J), 6 left-hand characters, a center pattern (K), 6 right-hand characters and an ending guard pattern (L).
The first (parity) bit determines the parity of the left-hand characters. The last bit in the right-hand side is the
check-digit. The firmware automatically recalculates this value after transmission. The letter E is used to select
EAN13 bar code.
A typical EAN13 ladder bar code sequence would look like the following:
"<RC0,70><EL5><BI>9J014561K780128L"
The above command line would generate a 5 unit wide bar code starting on row 0,column 70. The BI command
causes the interpretation to be printed with the bar code.
A typical expanded EAN13 picket fence bar code with no interpretation would be as follows:
"<RC0,10><X2><EP3>9J014561K780128L"
CODE 39
Code 39 is an alphanumeric bar code. All code 39 data must be bracketed by an asterisk (*) on both sides. The
letter N is used to select three of nine bar code. Note: this bar code can be printed in either a 2:1 or 3:1 wide to
narrow ratio. The following are 2:1 ratio commands (the default value).
A typical ladder code 39 bar code would be sent as follows:
"<RC0,70><NL3>*CODE39*"
This would result in a 3 unit wide bar code starting on row 0, column 70. No interpretation is printed.
A typical picket fence code 39 would be as follows:
"<RC0,10><NP5><BI>*CODE39*"
This code starts at row 0, column 10. The interpretation is included.
To print the above bar code in a 3:1 ratio you would send the following:
"<RC0,10><NXP5><BI>*CODE39*"
DTPL Programmer’s Manual 18
USS-CODABAR
USS-CODABAR is a numeric bar code with 6 special characters (-$:/.+) and 4 start/stop characters (A,B,C,D). A
start and stop character must bracket the data sent. The letter C is used to select USS-CODABAR bar code.
A typical data stream for a picket fence codabar bar code with interpretation starting at row 0,column 110 is as
follows:
"<RC0,110><CP><BI>A123456B"
A expanded ladder version of the above would be as follows:
"<RC0,110><X2><CL><BI>A123456B"
CODE 128
Code 128 is an alphanumeric bar code. All code 128 data must be bracketed by a caret (^) on both sides. The
letter O is used to select one twenty eight bar code. Shift characters and check digits are automatically calculated
by the Printer.
A typical ladder code 128 bar code would be sent as follows:
"<RC0,70><OL3>^CODE128^"
This would result in a 3 unit wide bar code starting on row 0, column 70. No interpretation is printed.
A typical expanded picket fence code 128 would be as follows:
"<RC0,10><X2><OP5><BI>^CODE128^"
This code starts at row 0, column 10. The interpretation is included.
