EM 220

This is a status request command to determine if the printer is off-line or if an error condition has occurred. Take the following into consideration:

• If this command interrupts the code string of another command, this command is processed as a parameter of the other command; therefore, the print result will not be correct.

• If a command such as graphics data or defined data has a code string that is the same as a code string in a parameter, the printer processes and then continues with the bit-image or other command.

• This command following DLE can be executed in real-time command mode.

This command is ignored when transmitting block data (Header ~ NUL).

Print data in page mode.

ASCII ESC FF Hex 1B 0C Decimal 27 12

▪ In page mode, prints all buffered data in the print area. ▪ After printing, the printer does not clear the buffer data. ▪ This command is used when the page mode data is printed repeatedly.

Set right-side character spacing.

ASCII ESC SP n Hex 1B 20 n Decimal 27 32 n

0 ≤ n ≤ 255

n=0

▪ Sets the character spacing for the right side of the character to

[n ×horizontal or vertical motion units].

▪ The user setting mode is a special mode to change the values in the NV

user memory with this command.

▪ In Function 2, the printer performs software reset. Therefore, the printer

clears the receive and print buffers, and resets all settings (user-defined characters, macros, and the character style) to the mode in effect at power on.

▪ Frequent write commands by this command, may damage the NV memory.

Therefore, it is recommended to write to NV memory no more than 10 times a day.

▪ While processing this command, the printer is BUSY when writing data to

the user NV memory and stops receiving data. Therefore, it is prohibited to transmit data including real-time commands during the execution of this command.

[Notes] For PDF417 symbol data (when cn=48)

▪ The symbol data specified by Function 080 d1...dk is stored in the printer

and is printed by the specification of Function 081. The symbol data in the save area is reserved until the following processing is performed:

- Function 080 is executed

- ESC @ is executed

- The printer is reset or the power is turned off

▪ When processing Function 081 or 082, the setting values of Functions

065 to 070 are used. If the printable area is not large enough, the symbol may not be printed.

▪ Executing Function 081 after executing Function 080 repeatedly prints the

same symbol data.

▪ By using Functions 065 to 070 combined with Function 081, the same

symbol data d1...dk is printed differently.

▪ By using Function 082, the symbol size printed by Function 081 is available.

QRCODE Symbol Data (cn = 49)

▪ Symbol data is saved according to <Function 180> and printed according

to <Function 181>. The symbol data in the storage area is saved until the following actions:

- Execution of Function 180

- Execution of ESC @

- Turn off printer power

▪ When either Function 181 or Function 182 is executed, the setting values

of Functions 165~169 are used. If the printable area is insufficient in size, the symbol data is not printed.

▪ According to the settings of <Function 165> to <Function 169>, <Function

181> has and prints the same data d1….dk.

▪ <Function 182> uses the size printed by <Function 181>.

no data is present in the printer buffer.

▪ If the size of any one symbol is larger than the print area, printing cannot

be done.

▪ If any of the following errors is present in the symbol storage area, printing

cannot be done.

- There is no data. (Function 280 cannot be executed)

- The number of numeric characters exceeds 138.

- The number of alphanumeric characters exceeds 93.

▪ Modes 2 and 3 are executed according to the following procedures: (RS, GS indicate the control code of MAXI CODE. y indicates the 2byte

numeric data.)

a) 9 byte data including ”[]>”,”RS”,”01”,”GS”,”yy” are regarded as the

Header.

- The next data item after the Header is the Primary Message.

- When printing, the Header is inserted at the beginning of the

Secondary Message.

b) When Header data is absent, the Primary Message is regarded as

the first data item.

c) In the Primary Message, GS is regarded as the separator that divides

d) All data of the Secondary Message is regarded as symbol data.

▪ Mode 4 does not distinguish between the Primary Message and the
