GNU GENERAL PUBLIC LICENSE Version 2, June 1991
Copyright (C) 1989, 1991 Free Software Foundation, Inc. 59 Temple Place, Suite
330, Boston, MA 02111-1307 USA Everyone is permitted to copy and distribute
verbatim copies of this license document, but changing it is not allowed.
Preamble
The licenses for most software are designed to take away your freedom to share
and change it. By contrast, the GNU General Public License is intended to
guarantee your freedom to share and change free software--to make sure the
software is free for all its users. This General Public License applies to most of the
Free Software Foundation's software and to any other program whose authors
commit to using it. (Some other Free Software Foundation software is covered by
the GNU Library General Public License instead.) You can apply it to your
programs, too.
When we speak of free software, we are referring to freedom, not price. Our
General Public Licenses are designed to make sure that you have the freedom to
distribute copies of free software (and charge for this service if you wish), that you
receive source code or can get it if you want it, that you can change the software or
use pieces of it in new free programs; and that you know you can do these things.
To protect your rights, we need to make restrictions that forbid anyone to deny you
these rights or to ask you to surrender the rights. These restrictions translate to
certain responsibilities for you if you distribute copies of the software, or if you
modify it.
For example, if you distribute copies of such a program, whether gratis or for a fee,
you must give the recipients all the rights that you have. You must make sure that
they, too, receive or can get the source code. And you must show them these terms
so they know their rights.
We protect your rights with two steps: (1) copyright the software, and (2) offer you
this license which gives you legal permission to copy, distribute and/or modify the
software.
Also, for each author's protection and ours, we want to make certain that everyone
understands that there is no warranty for this free software. If the software is
modified by someone else and passed on, we want its recipients to know that what
they have is not the original, so that any problems introduced by others will not
reflect on the original authors' reputations.
Finally, any free program is threatened constantly by software patents. We wish to
avoid the danger that redistributors of a free program will individually obtain patent
licenses, in effect making the program proprietary. To prevent this, we have made
it clear that any patent must be licensed for everyone's free use or not licensed at
all.
The precise terms and conditions for copying, distribution and modification follow.
GNU GENERAL PUBLIC LICENSE TERMS AND CONDITIONS FOR
COPYING,DISTRIBUTION AND MODIFICATION
0. This License applies to any program or other work which contains a notice placed
by the copyright holder saying it may be distributed under the terms of this General
Public License. The "Program", below, refers to any such program or work, and a
"work based on the Program" means either the Program or any derivative work
under copyright law: that is to say, a work containing the Program or a portion of it,
ix
either verbatim or with modifications and/or translated into another language.
(Hereinafter, translation is included without limitation in the term "modification".)
Each licensee is addressed as "you"
Activities other than copying, distribution and modification are not covered by this
License; they are outside its scope. The act of running the Program is not restricted,
and the output from the Program is covered only if its contents constitute a work
based on the Program (independent of having been made by running the Program).
Whether that is true depends on what the Program does.
1. You may copy and distribute verbatim copies of the Program's source code as
you receive it, in any medium, provided that you conspicuously and appropriately
publish on each copy an appropriate copyright notice and disclaimer of warranty;
keep intact all the notices that refer to this License and to the absence of any
warranty; and give any other recipients of the Program a copy of this License along
with the Program. You may charge a fee for the physical act of transferring a copy,
and you may at your option offer warranty protection in exchange for a fee.
2. You may modify your copy or copies of the Program or any portion of it, thus
forming a work based on the Program, and copy and distribute such modifications
or work under the terms of Section 1 above, provided that you also meet all of these
conditions:
a) You must cause the modified files to carry prominent notices stating that you
changed the files and the date of any change.
b) You must cause any work that you distribute or publish, that in whole or in part
contains or is derived from the Program or any part thereof, to be licensed as a
whole at no charge to all third parties under the terms of this License.
c) If the modified program normally reads commands interactively when run, you
must cause it, when started running for such interactive use in the most ordinary
way, to print or display an announcement including an appropriate copyright notice
and a notice that there is no warranty (or else, saying that you provide a warranty)
and that users may redistribute the program under these conditions, and telling the
user how to view a copy of this License. (Exception: if the Program itself is
interactive but does not normally print such an announcement, your work based on
the Program is not required to print an announcement.)
These requirements apply to the modified work as a whole. If identifiable sections
of that work are not derived from the Program, and can be reasonably considered
independent and separate works in themselves, then this License, and its terms, do
not apply to those sections when you distribute them as separate works. But when
you distribute the same sections as part of a whole which is a work based on the
Program, the distribution of the whole must be on the terms of this License, whose
permissions for other licensees extend to the entire whole, and thus to each and
every part regardless of who wrote it.
Thus, it is not the intent of this section to claim rights or contest your rights to work
written entirely by you; rather, the intent is to exercise the right to control the
distribution of derivative or collective works based on the Program.
In addition, mere aggregation of another work not based on the Program with the
Program (or with a work based on the Program) on a volume of a storage or
distribution medium does not bring the other work under the scope of this License.
3. You may copy and distribute the Program (or a work based on it, under Section
2) in object code or executable form under the terms of Sections 1 and 2 above
provided that you also do one of the following:
a) Accompany it with the complete corresponding machine-readable source code,
which must be distributed under the terms of Sections 1 and 2 above on a medium
customarily used for software interchange; or,
x
b) Accompany it with a written offer, valid for at least three years, to give any third
party, for a charge no more than your cost of physically performing source
distribution, a complete machine readable copy of the corresponding source code,
to be distributed under the terms of Sections 1 and 2 above on a medium
customarily used for software interchange; or, c) Accompany it with the information
you received as to the offer to distribute corresponding source code. (This
alternative is allowed only for non commercial distribution and only if you received
the program in object code or executable form with such an offer, in accord with
Subsection b above.)
The source code for a work means the preferred form of the work for making
modifications to it.
For an executable work, complete source code means all the source code for all
modules it contains, plus any associated interface definition files, plus the scripts
used to control compilation and installation of the executable. However, as a
special exception, the source code distributed need not include anything that is
normally distributed (in either source or binary form) with the major components
(compiler, kernel, and so on) of the operating system on which the executable runs,
unless that component itself accompanies the executable.
If distribution of executable or object code is made by offering access to copy from
a designated place, then offering equivalent access to copy the source code from
the same place counts as distribution of the source code, even though third parties
are not compelled to copy the source along with the object code.
4. You may not copy, modify, sublicense, or distribute the Program except as
expressly provided under this License. Any attempt otherwise to copy, modify,
sublicense or distribute the Program is void, and will automatically terminate your
rights under this License. However, parties who have received copies, or rights,
from you under this License will not have their licenses terminated so long as such
parties remain in full compliance.
5. You are not required to accept this License, since you have not signed it.
However, nothing else grants you permission to modify or distribute the Program or
its derivative works. These actions are prohibited by law if you do not accept this
License. Therefore, by modifying or distributing the Program (or any work based on
the Program), you indicate your acceptance of this License to do so, and all its
terms and conditions for copying, distributing or modifying the Program or works
based on it.
6. Each time you redistribute the Program (or any work based on the Program), the
recipient automatically receives a license from the original licensor to copy,
distribute or modify the Program subject to these terms and conditions. You may
not impose any further restrictions on the recipients' exercise of the rights granted
herein. You are not responsible for enforcing compliance by third parties to this
License.
7. If, as a consequence of a court judgment or allegation of patent infringement or
for any other reason (not limited to patent issues), conditions are imposed on you
(whether by court order, agreement or otherwise) that contradict the conditions of
this License, they do not excuse you from the conditions of this License. If you
cannot distribute so as to satisfy simultaneously your obligations under this License
and any other pertinent obligations, then as a consequence you may not distribute
the Program at all. For example, if a patent license would not permit royalty free
redistribution of the Program by all those who receive copies directly or indirectly
through you, then the only way you could satisfy both it and this License would be
to refrain entirely from distribution of the Program.
xi
If any portion of this section is held invalid or unenforceable under any particular
circumstance, the balance of the section is intended to apply and the section as a
whole is intended to apply in other circumstances.
It is not the purpose of this section to induce you to infringe any patents or other
property right claims or to contest validity of any such claims; this section has the
sole purpose of protecting the integrity of the free software distribution system,
which is implemented by public license practices. Many people have made
generous contributions to the wide range of software distributed through that
system in reliance on consistent application of that system; it is up to the author/
donor to decide if he or she is willing to distribute software through any other system
and a licensee cannot impose that choice.
This section is intended to make thoroughly clear what is believed to be a
consequence of the rest of this License.
8. If the distribution and/or use of the Program is restricted in certain countries either
by patents or by copyrighted interfaces, the original copyright holder who places the
Program under this License may add an explicit geographical distribution limitation
excluding those countries, so that distribution is permitted only in or among
countries not thus excluded. In such case, this License incorporates the limitation
as if written in the body of this License.
9. The Free Software Foundation may publish revised and/or new versions of the
General Public License from time to time. Such new versions will be similar in spirit
to the present version, but may differ in detail to address new problems or concerns.
Each version is given a distinguishing version number. If the Program specifies a
version number of this License which applies to it and "any later version", you have
the option of following the terms and conditions either of that version or of any later
version published by the Free Software Foundation. If the Program does not specify
a version number of this License, you may choose any version ever published by
the Free Software Foundation.
10. If you wish to incorporate parts of the Program into other free programs whose
distribution conditions are different, write to the author to ask for permission. For
software which is copyrighted by the Free Software Foundation, write to the Free
Software Foundation; we sometimes make exceptions for this. Our decision will be
guided by the two goals of preserving the free status of all derivatives of our free
software and of promoting the sharing and reuse of software generally.
NO WARRANTY
11. BECAUSE THE PROGRAM IS LICENSED FREE OF CHARGE, THERE IS NO
WARRANTY FOR THE PROGRAM, TO THE EXTENT PERMITTED BY
APPLICABLE LAW. EXCEPT WHEN OTHERWISE STATED IN WRITING THE
COPYRIGHT HOLDERS AND/OR OTHER PARTIES PROVIDE THE PROGRAM
"AS IS" WITHOUT WARRANTY OF ANY KIND, EITHER EXPRESSED OR
IMPLIED, INCLUDING, BUT NOT LIMITED TO, THE IMPLIED WARRANTIES OF
MERCHANTABILITY AND FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE.
THE ENTIRE RISK AS TO THE QUALITY AND PERFORMANCE OF THE
PROGRAM IS WITH YOU. SHOULD THE PROGRAM PROVE DEFECTIVE, YOU
ASSUME THE COST OF ALL NECESSARY SERVICING, REPAIR OR
CORRECTION.
12. IN NO EVENT UNLESS REQUIRED BY APPLICABLE LAW OR AGREED TO
IN WRITING WILL ANY COPYRIGHT HOLDER, OR ANY OTHER PARTY WHO
MAY MODIFY AND/OR REDISTRIBUTE THE PROGRAM AS PERMITTED
ABOVE, BE LIABLE TO YOU FOR DAMAGES, INCLUDING ANY GENERAL,
SPECIAL, INCIDENTAL OR CONSEQUENTIAL DAMAGES ARISING OUT OF
THE USE OR INABILITY TO USE THE PROGRAM (INCLUDING BUT NOT
LIMITED TO LOSS OF DATA OR DATA BEING RENDERED INACCURATE OR
xii
LOSSES SUSTAINED BY YOU OR THIRD PARTIES OR A FAILURE OF THE
PROGRAM TO OPERATE WITH ANY OTHER PROGRAMS), EVEN IF SUCH
HOLDER OR OTHER PARTY HAS BEEN ADVISED OF THE POSSIBILITY OF
SUCH DAMAGES.
END OF TERMS AND CONDITIONS
How to Apply These Terms to Your New Programs
If you develop a new program, and you want it to be of the greatest possible use to
the public, the best way to achieve this is to make it free software which everyone
can redistribute and change under these terms.
To do so, attach the following notices to the program. It is safest to attach them to
the start of each source file to most effectively convey the exclusion of warranty;
and each file should have at least the "copyright" line and a pointer to where the full
notice is found.
<one line to give the program's name and a brief idea of what it does.>
Copyright (C) <year> <name of author>
This program is free software; you can redistribute it and/or modify it under the
terms of the GNU General Public License as published by the Free Software
Foundation; either version 2 of the License, or (at your option) any later version.
This program is distributed in the hope that it will be useful, but WITHOUT ANY
WARRANTY; without even the implied warranty of MERCHANTABILITY or
FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE. See the GNU General Public License
for more details.
You should have received a copy of the GNU General Public License along with
this program; if not, write to the Free Software Foundation, Inc., 59 Temple Place,
Suite 330, Boston, MA 02111-1307 USA
Also add information on how to contact you by electronic and paper mail. If the
program is interactive, make it output a short notice like this when it starts in an
interactive mode:
Gnomovision version 69, Copyright (C) year name of author
Gnomovision comes with ABSOLUTELY NO WARRANTY; for details type `show
w'.
This is free software, and you are welcome to redistribute it under certain
conditions; type `show c' for details.
The hypothetical commands `show w' and `show c' should show the appropriate
parts of the General Public License. Of course, the commands you use may be
called something other than `show w' and `show c'; they could even be mouseclicks or menu items--whatever suits your program.
You should also get your employer (if you work as a programmer) or your school,
if any, to sign a "copyright disclaimer" for the program, if necessary. Here is a
sample; alter the names:
Yoyodyne, Inc., hereby disclaims all copyright interest in the program
`Gnomovision' (which makes passes at compilers) written by James Hacker.
<signature of Ty Coon>, 1 April 1989
Ty Coon, President of Vice
This General Public License does not permit incorporating your program into
proprietary programs. If your program is a subroutine library, you may consider it
more useful to permit linking proprietary applications with the library. If this is what
you want to do, use the GNU Library General Public License instead of this License.

4Using PCL Emulation
This chapter explains the PCL emulation of the printer.
About PCL Emulation
Print data is data written based on certain rules (grammars). These rules
(grammars) are called "print languages".
The printer supports two types of print languages: page description language and
emulation. Page description language is a language that describes images on a
page basis. Emulation is the ability of this printer to imitate print results of other
printers.
Emulation Mode
When printing data written in a language other than the page description languages
supported by the printer, switch the printer to an emulation mode. The printer has multiple
emulation modes and PCL is one of them. In the PCL emulation mode, the printer emulates
the following printer.
Emulation ModeEmulated Printer
PCL emulation mode (PCL mode)HP-CLJ4600
Host Interfaces and Emulation
Each host interface supports different print languages. The following host interfaces support
PCL emulation:
• Parallel port
• LPD port
• NetWare port
•SMB port
• IPP port
• USB port
• Port9100 port
NOTE: To use a NetWare, SMB, or IPP port, the network expansion card (optional) must
be installed.
Switching Print Languages
The machine supports multiple emulation modes and can switch between multiple
print languages.
There are three methods of switching print languages.
Using PCL Emulation51
Switching Languages by Commands
If the printer receives a command that explicitly tells which language to use, the
printer switches to that language.
Switching Languages Automatically
The printer examines data received by its host interface and automatically
determines and switches to the appropriate language.
Switching Languages by Interface
The printer can be programmed to switch to a particular language for a particular
host interface. This can be done by setting a language for each interface on the
control panel.
Mode Menu Screen
The menu items for the emulation modes can be accessed from the mode menus.
To access the mode menu for the PCL emulation mode, press the <Menu> button
and select [Print Language] > [PCL]. The following is the first screen of the PCL
mode menu.
Reference: For more information about the setting items of the PCL mode menu,
refer to "5 Setting the PCL Mode" (P. 55).
About Fonts
This section explains the fonts that can be used in the PCL emulation mode.
Supported Fonts
The following fonts can be used in the PCL emulation mode.
NOTE: The PCL 5 fonts can be used also by downloading it on the hard disk (optional).
The supported fonts and their print samples can be viewed on the [PCL Font List]. For
information about the PCL 5 fonts, refer to the section [PCL Font List] in the User Guide.

Paper Eject Function
The section explains the paper eject function of the printer.
Forcibly Ejecting the Remaining Data
In the PCL emulation mode, the printer does not eject a job unless it receives a full
page worth of data. When the host interface is Parallel or USB, and if only a portion
of a page is received, the printer does not eject the page. The printer waits for the
data and shows [Data Wait] on the display until the time set under [Time-out]
elapses.
In such situation, you can forcibly print the page without waiting for the time-out
period to elapse.
Use the following steps when forcibly ejecting the data remained in the printer.
NOTE: If you send a job to the printer while the display says [Data Wait], the job may not
be printed successfully.

6Using ESC/P Emulation
About ESC/P Emulation
This chapter explains the ESC/P emulation of the printer.
Print data is data written based on certain rules (grammars). These rules
(grammars) are called "print languages".
The printer supports two types of print languages: page description language and
emulation. Page description language is a language that describes images on a
page basis. Emulation is the ability of this printer to imitate print results of other
printers.
Emulation Mode
To print data written in a language other than the page description languages
supported by the printer, switch the printer to an emulation mode. The printer has
multiple emulation modes and ESC/P is one of them. In the ESC/P emulation mode,
the printer emulates the following printer.
Emulation ModeEmulated Printer
ESC/P emulation mode (ESC/P mode)VP-1000
Host Interfaces and Emulation
Each host interface supports different print languages. The following host interfaces
support ESC/P emulation:
• Parallel port
• LPD port
• NetWare port
•SMB port
• IPP port
• USB port
• Port9100 port
NOTE: To use a NetWare, SMB, or IPP port, the network expansion card (optional) must
be installed.
Using ESC/P Emulation63
Switching Print Languages
The printer supports multiple emulation modes and can switch between multiple
print languages.
There are three methods of switching print languages.
Switching Languages by Commands
If the printer receives a command that explicitly tells which language to use, the
printer switches to that language.
Switching Languages Automatically
The printer examines data received by its host interface and automatically
determines and switches to the appropriate language.
Switching Languages by Interface
The printer can be programmed to switch to a particular language for a particular
host interface. This can be done by setting a language for each interface on the
control panel.
Mode Menu Screen
The menu items for the emulation modes can be accessed from the mode menus.
To access the mode menu for the ESC/P emulation mode, press the <Menu>
button and select [Print Language] > [ESC/P]. The following is the first screen of the
ESC/P mode menu.
Reference: For information about the setting items of the ESC/P mode menu, refer to "7
Setting the ESC/P Mode" (P. 69).
64Using ESC/P Emulation
About Fonts
This section explains the fonts that can be used in the ESC/P emulation mode.
Supported Fonts
The following outline fonts can be used in the ESC/P emulation mode.
NOTE: The supported fonts and their print samples can be viewed on the [Font List]. For
information about supported fonts, refer to the [Font List] section in the User Guide.
Western Fonts
• Roman
• Sans Serif
•OCR-B
User-Defined Characters (External Characters)
The ESC/P emulation mode allows you to use user-defined characters (external
characters).
User-defined characters are stored in the memory (if the optional hard disk is not
installed) and are erased when the printer is switched off.
If the hard disk is installed, user-defined characters are stored in the hard disk and
are retained even when the printer is switched off.
User-defined characters are stored as bitmap fonts and cannot be shared among
different print languages.
Font Cache
Outline fonts of up to a certain size can be cached to improve print speed. When
printing outline fonts, the printer converts them into bitmap fonts. This process can
be eliminated by storing converted bitmap fonts into the memory. This is called “font
caching”.
The stored bitmap fonts are erased if you switch the printer off or initialize the
system.
Using ESC/P Emulation65
Paper Eject Function
This section explains the paper eject function of the printer.
Forcibly Ejecting the Remaining Data
In the ESC/P emulation mode, the printer does not eject a job unless it receives a
full page worth of data. When the host interface is Parallel or USB, and if only a
portion of a page is received, the printer does not eject the page. The printer waits
for the data and shows [Data Wait] on the display until the time set under [Time-out]
elapses.
In such situation, you can forcibly print the page without waiting for the time-out
period to elapse.
Use the following steps when forcibly ejecting the data remained in the printer.
NOTE: If you send a job to the printer while the display says [Data Wait], the job may not
be printed successfully.
Send a job to the printer after forcibly ejecting the current job or after the time-out period
has elapsed.
Reference: For information about the [Time-out] feature, refer to the ‘User Guide’.
1.Press the <OK/Eject> button when the
display is in the state shown on the right.
<OK/Eject/> button
The printing starts.
When the printing is finished, the display
reads [Ready to print].
Important: When [Print Mode] (common menu) is set to [Auto], you cannot force-eject a
job since the display does not show [Data Wait].
66Using ESC/P Emulation
Print Features in the ESC/P Mode
The following print features can be used in the ESC/P emulation mode.
Multiple Up (ESC/P)
Multiple Up is a feature that prints multiple pages onto one sheet of paper.
In the ESC/P emulation mode, you can perform 2-up printing.
Form Overlay
Form Overlay is a feature that allows you to store forms in the printer and merge
them with print data when printing. When using this feature, select a form you want
to use on the control panel.
Barcode (ESC/P)
The ESC/P emulation mode allows you to use barcodes. The following barcode
standards are supported:
•OCR-B
About Forms
• JAN code
• CODE39
• NW7 (CODABAR)
• Industrial 2 of 5
• ITF (Interleaved 2 of 5)
•CODE128
• Customer barcode
• QR code
The following number of forms can be registered in the ESC/P emulation mode.
ESC/P
Hard disk installed64
Hard disk not installed64
NOTE: If you attempt to register a form when the printer already has the maximum number
of forms, or when the memory is not sufficient to store the form, the printer does not
register the form without showing any error.
Whether forms have been registered successfully can be checked by printing out the [User
Defined List]. For information about the [User Defined List], refer to the [User Defined List]
section in the User Guide.

Performs a carriage return only.
[CR/LF]

0 Style

The following options are available:
[0] (default)
Uses "0" without a slash (normal style zero).
[]
Uses "0" with a slash through it.
Specify Extension
Sets whether or not to enable the extension specified by selecting [Enable] or
[Disable] (default). When the extension is enabled, printing can be controlled using
text codes.
NOTE: An extended command is prefixed with an extender followed by command
identification data and parameter data (if necessary). An extension is the first 2 bytes of an
extended command (ESC (1BH in hexadecimal) followed by a ";" (semicolon or 3 BH in
hexadecimal)).
Extension
Sets the extension (first 2 bytes) of an extended command if you want to enable
printing by text codes. The codes between 0x21 and 0x7d are valid. The default is
[&%].
Setting the ESC/P Mode77
NOTE: An extended command is prefixed with an extender followed by command
identification data and parameter data (if necessary). An extension is the first 2 bytes of an
extended command (ESC (1BH in hexadecimal) followed by a ";" (semicolon or 3 BH in
hexadecimal)).
Form Overlay
Performs Form Overlay if you select a form registered in the ESC/P mode (No. 01 - 64). The
default is [Off].
NOTE: This setting is not affected by extension commands sent from users.
If you delete a form after selecting it, it still appears on the menu, but disappears, if you
switch the screens using < > or < >. If you delete the form, this setting changes to [Off].
If you select this feature when there is no form registered in the printer, the display shows
[Not registered].
Stored Prog. Menu
This menu allows you to store the settings in the NV memory (No. 01 - 05) and recall
them whenever you want.
At startup
The [At startup] memory is NV memory (No. 01 to 05) stored under [Store] and
recalled when the power is switched off or when the system is initialized.
Enter the number of NV memory you want to recall.
The default is [Factory Defaults], which recalls the factory default settings.
Retrieve
Recalls and retrieves the settings stored in the printer.
Enter the number of memory you want to recall.
The default is [Factory Defaults], which recalls the factory default settings.
Store
There are two types of memory: ROM that stores the factory default settings and
NV memory (No. 01 to 05) that stores the user-defined settings.
The NV memory (No. 01 to 05) allows you to store the settings of mode menus in
groups.
By storing the settings, you can easily recall them and do not need to enter them
every time you switch on the printer.
The stored settings will be retained until you initialize the NV memory or delete the
settings.
Delete
Deletes the settings stored in the NV memory.
Set the number of memory to be deleted.
NOTE: When no setting is stored in the NV memory, [No.01] - [No.05] do not appear on the
display, and [Not registered] appears instead.
