Read Carefully Before Using the Printer
Wrong handling of the printer may cause its performance declined and the product damaged. Please read the notes below before handling.
1. Static discharge prevention must be made for installation and removal of the printer to protect IC and other electrical parts. Connect it to the earth ground. It is also requested to remove the static from body of the person before handling, especially, the input terminal.
2. Avoid excessive force to the input terminal for handling.
3. When any type of paper, other than specified in this manual, is used, it may cause deterioration of the print quality and thermal head reliability. Examples of troubles
1) Print quality deterioration by using low sensitivity paper.
2) Thermal head wears due to roughness of paper surface.
3) Sticking between heat receipt layer and thermal head, and vibration noise during printing.
4) Print ink disappears on low print durability paper.
5) Electrolyte corrosion on thermal head due to low quality of heat receipt layer.
4. Avoid printing with no paper loaded. It damages platen and thermal head, printer life will be shorten.
5. Do not scrabble thermal head with sharp edge or something hard, or give impact. The heat element may be damaged.
6. Set the power of printer off before connecting or removing connecters.
7. When printing in high speed under low temperature of high humidity environment, the paper may be stained by moisture that appears from paper, or the printer may have condensation. Avoid dew from dropping down to the thermal head that may cause electrolyte corrosion. Turn the power off until any dew is removed.
8. The printer is not protected from water or dew formed. Do not water the printer or handle it with a wet hand, which may cause damage to the printer due to short circuit, or heat or fire.
9. The printer is not protected from dust or dirt. If it is used at dusty place, the thermal head may be damaged or paper feed is not operated properly.
10. When cooling the printer with a fan, avoid the printer’s paper outlet from locating fan’s air inlet. It may cause mal-function of printer.
11. Reflection type of infrared ray sensors are used at some locations in the printer. Direct sun light may cause mal-function of printer. Avoid from such a location for installation.
12. This printer does not support any operations caused by the commands or control commands not specified in this manual.
13. Please use both hand when you hold the printer.
14. In order to prevent excess current, please put elemental device to external 24V power line (Please refer to the power supply specification for the details), and also put fuse.
15. Please plug off the printer when you do not use the product for a long time. Please also insert paper between the platen.

z Print total dots divided by 256, quotient is n2 and remainder is n1. z Total dots in bit image mode are n1 + (256 x n2). z If the bit image input data exceeds 1 dot/line position, the exceeded data will be
disregarded and it is not automatically printed in the next line.
z Bit image data (Dn) interprets bit 1 as print and bit 0 as not print. z The total dots to be printed in the bit image must be the same with quantity of bit image
data that corresponds to the dots. If quantity of bit image data is less than the total dots, the same amount of following data, same as the balance, is treated as bit image data. If it is more than the total dots, the same exceeding volume of bit image data will be treated as normal data.
z When bit image is continuously printed, print by lines (3mm) and stop is repeated for such
reason as communication speed and others, the print density may not be consistent. Use NV bit image to solve the problem.

17) NV bit image pattern register : << GS T n >>
Code: [1D] h + [54] h + n *['1'≤n≤'2'] Register contents of page buffer as NV bit image pattern. * It is necessary to write the data to be registered in the page buffer. Printing is not needed. * There are two patterns able to be registered. (Selected by ‘n’ value)
* The registered data is effective until it is re-registered. * Once registered, power on/off , printer initialization does not clear the data.
18) NV bit image pattern lay over : << ESC F n >>
Code: [1B] h + [46] h + n * ['0'≤n≤'2'] Specifies if the previously registered NV bit image pattern should be laid over to print (OR print),
at printing the data by Print page feed <FF>.
* n means as follows:
* This command specification is effective until it is reset, execute <printer initialization>, the
power is set off.
* The default value of n is '0'.
19) Barcode print/edit : << GS b n1 nx1 nx2 nx3 ny1 ny2 ny3 n4 Dn LF >>
Code: [1D] h + [62] h + n1 + nx1 + nx2 + nx3 + ny1 + ny2 + ny3 + n4 + Dn + [0A] h
Selects barcode structure and print/edit * ['0'≤n1≤'6']
* Selects the following barcode structure by n1 value: * ['0'≤n4'2']

21) Barcode height setting : << GS h n1 n2 >> Code:[1D] h + [68] h + n1 + n2 * ['01'≤n1n2≤'70']
Specifies the height of barcode (mm).
* n1n2 indicates the height of barcode in mm.
* The default value of n1n2 is '20'.
22) HRI characters print/edit setting : << GS H n >> Code: [1D] h + [48] h + n * ['0'≤n≤'1'] * Specify print/edit of HRI characters in case print/edit of barcode is executed. * The edit by n value is specified as follows:
n Print/edit '0' No print/edit '1' Print/edit below barcode
* The default value of n is '0'.
23) Barcode modification total setting : << GS X n1 n2 n3 n4 >> * ['0'≤n1≤'1'] Code: [1D] h + [58] h + n1 +n2 + n3 + n4 * ['2'≤n2≤'4'] Totally sets the modification of barcode for print/edit * ['01'≤n3n4≤'70'] * n1 is the same with the parameter of “HRI character print/edit setting”, n2 is the same with
parameter of “Barcode width size setting” and n3n4 the same with parameter of “Barcode height setting”.
24) Send printer status : << ESC v >> Code: [1B] h + [76] h + n For the detail, please refer to [Send printer status] of line mode command.
