In order to provide correct integration of the weighing device with the printer
(correct printout of diacritical signs of a given language) it is necessary to make
sure that the code page of a sent printout is accordant with a code page of
a printer. There are two methods for obtaining code page accordance:
• by setting the right code page in the settings of a printer (read the user
manual of the printer) – it must be accordant with the printout code page
of a weighing device:
Code page Language
1250 Polish, Czech, Hungarian.
1252 English, German, French, Spanish, Italian.
1254 Turkish.
• by sending the control code from the weighing device, which automatically
sets the right code page of the printer (i.e. code page accordant with the
one of a weighing device).
Default code page value of the printer is 1250 – Central
European code page.
Exemplary weighing device settings for correct printout of Polish signs with use
of EPSON printer connected to RS232 port:
Baud rate 9600 bit/s 38400 bit/s 38400 bit/s
Parity None None None
Code page 852 1250 852
Prefix - 1B742D 1B7412
EPSON TM-U220D EPSON TM-T20 EPSON TM-T20
35
Page 36
15.2.3. Prefix, Suffix
Prefix and suffix are controlling codes (given in a hexadecimal format) sent
to a printer at print start - <Prefix> parameter, and at print end - <Suffix>
parameter. Sending these codes allows to control globally information and
actions carried out at the beginning and/or at the end of each printout sent from
a weighing device to a printer. Most frequent usage:
• Prefix - sending info on print code page.
• Suffix - sending paper crop command in EPSON printers (in case
of printer equipped with an auto-cutter blade). Paper crop in EPSON
printer – code 1D564108.
Settings of <Prefix> and <Suffix> parameters are valid for all printouts sent via
the weighing device, e.g.: adjustment reports, statistics and header, footer and
GLP printouts.
15.2.4. Record of Measurement Data Onto a USB Flash Drive
Scale program enables record of measurement data onto an external flash
drive.
Procedure:
• Plug a USB flash drive into the USB type A port.
• Enter <Peripherals / Printer / Port> submenu and set <Pendrive> value.
Return to weighing.
• Now the measurement data is saved to a text file on a USB flash drive
whenever you press
key. The file is generated automatically by
a scale software under printout.txt name.
Remove the USB flash drive from the USB port after about
10s counting from the last measurement record, only after

• Press key to which
When:
pictogram (process start) is assigned.
1. The declared value of formulation multiplier causes exceeding of the max
capacity value, then the following message is displayed: <Formulation multiplier value too high>. The process gets cancelled.
2. The declared value of ingredient mass exceeds the max capacity value,
then the following message is displayed: <Ingredient mass value higher than max capacity value>. The process gets cancelled.
3. Sum of ingredient mass and high deviation values exceeds the max
capacity value, then the following message is displayed: <High deviation value too high>. The process gets cancelled.
4. The weighing result is unstable then the following message is displayed:
<Unstable weighing result>. The process status changes to PS=Pause
and remains so until stable weighing result is obtained.
• Upon process start, bar graph of weighed ingredient mass is displayed
with the following data:
