Enlarge Font
The installation font is enlargeable from 1~12 times.
The internal bitmap is enlargeable from its standard size of 1~12 times.
For example, if the standard size is enlarged to 3 times with the width 5dot X height 9dot, it becomes at width 15dot X
height 27 dot.
Below is the parameter filling method of printed character at height X enlargement ratio, width X enlargement ratio.
width X enlargement ratio = width parameter setting value
height X enlargement ratio = height parameter setting value
Enlarge Specification <L> is controlling the font size of enlargement. The parameter is specified by the ratio.
For instance, if it is specified as <L>0304, font will be set at horizontal direction X 3 times and vertical direction X 4
times bigger than the standard size.
Character pitch is also enlarged if Expand Specification Command is specified.
Fixed Pitch and Proportional Pitch
XU~XL Font, Outline Font, CG Font can select Fixed Pitch and Proportional Pitch Printing.
Proportional Pitch Specification can be set at proportional pitch specification <PS>, proportional pitch release
specification<PR>,or printer’s LCD advance mode.
The proportional pitch size is different depends on font type. If proportional pitch is specified, the width of alphanumeric
will become smaller.
The character width of fixed pitch is based on the font size respectively.
Difference between Outline Font and Bit Map Font
Bitmap font is internally installed at a fixed font height and width size. The actual height of bitmap font is slightly bigger
than the width.
Bitmap font is the biggest size of font matrix.
The reference for font type and font size is at the previous page of Font Table.
Set the height and width of the outline font equally, a well-balanced font can be generated by using the Smooth Scaling
Argorithm Function of the printer. In addition, many font styles such as character decoration, reverse plate, shadow and
italics can be selected.

[Supplementary Explanation]
1.Character pitch is enlarged at the same time. When character pitch specification <P> is used at the same time, the parameter value of horizontal
direction enlargement ratio which is specified at enlargement specification <L> will be reflected in the next character pitch specification <P>
2.To enlarge the graphic, specify the enlargement specification <L> before the graphic print command.
[Point]
1.To enlarge the ratio, design the print format which will not exceed the print area.

[Supplementary Explanation]
1.Valid only with Optional installed model of CL408e/412eRFID.
2.RFID Write Specification <RK> operates as printer’s print motion, the following motions of Continuous Motion, Cutter Motion, (Motion
1), Dispense Motion (Motion 1) and Tear Off Motion is applicable. However, if tear off motion is specified, information return
becomes invalid even if it is writable to the tag.
3. RFID Write Specification <RK> cannot be specified at multiple between Data Send Start Specification <A> ~ Data Send Complete
Specification <Z>. Use STX+<A> and <Z>+ETX as a pair. The motion is not stable when STX and ETX is omitted.
4.When RFID Tag Error Ignore is specified, print job will be re-started automatically when RFID Tag Error occur. After the re-start, the
data as same as the sent-data will be sent when RFID Tag Error occur, the quantity specified at Print Label Specification <Q> will
not be deducted.
When RFID Tag Error Ignore Specification is set at 2~9, the specified quantity of RFID Tag Error will be ignored. If specified
quantity of RFID Tag Error continue to appear, print job will be stopped with error. To stop auto printing temporarily when RFID tag
error occurs, press LINE key when RFID TAG ERROR is displaying on the LCD screen, set to Offline status, clear all of the
received data.
5.If specification of parameter b is omitted, RFID Tag Error Ignore Specification will not be performed.
6.Once specification of parameter c is omitted, write protector specification will not be executed. If specification of parameter b is
omitted, the specification of parameter c is not able to be performed.
7.If write protector is specified, data which is written to the Tag will be protected. Please be noted that once the Tag is protected, the
re-write of the Tag is not able to be executed. And if data re-write is performed by printer to the protected Tag data, RFID Tag Error
will appear.
8.Only TAG-IT can be applied on Write Protector Specification. If write protector is specified against I-CODE tag, command error will
appear.
9.Information of sequential and calendar cannot be written in RFID. It can be used with combination with Job ID Specification <ID>.
10. The RFID detail motion can be referred to “RFID Kit Option Specification”.

1. When Proportional Pitch Specification <PS> is specified, the width of alphanumeric becomes narrower than before it is specified.
2. Proportional print will not be conducted when data that is not specified is set.
3. Although the setting status of Proportional Pitch Specification <PS> is default at printer initial status, the setting value
(fixed/proportional) of default at printer LCD Advance Mode Setting still can be specified.

[Supplementary Explanation]
1. The position specification of Print Vertical Position Specification <V> or Print Horizontal Position Specification <H> are absolute
value from the start point.
2. When the value of parameter a is 4~9, it will become command error and ignored. In case of besides figures, it is ignored and will
be printed at 0 degree.
3. Be aware of any barcode blurring when printing barcode with serial 1 or 2. And slow down the print speed when conducting
rotation print using serial 1 or 2.
