Format Description :
The programming manual command description includes the following sections:

1） [Name]

This is the first part of the command descriptions. ASCII code is given command of the form
and the function overview of command .

2） [Format]

This section uses the ASCII coding form, Hex code form, Decimal code form of three kinds of
formal description of the command. Which part of the range compared to a decimal number no
special instructions, such as in the following example 1 ≤ n ≤ 4, where 1 is a decimal number,
rather than the ASCII code table in "1".

3） [Range]Gives the allowable ranges for the arguments.

4） [Description]Describes the command’s function.

5） [Detail]

The command notice is given. Because commands in different modes, when with different
commands, will lead to mutual influence, and this section gives the details.

6） [Reference]Gives the lists of related commands.

• If the printing area width set by GS L and GS W for the NV bit image is
less than onevertical line, the following processing is performed only on
the line in question. However,in NV bit image mode, one vertical line
means 1 dot in normal mode (m=0, 48) and indouble-height mode (m=2,
50), and it means 2 dots in double-width mode (m=1, 49) andin quadruple
mode(m=3, 51).
①The printing area width is extended to the right in NV bit image mode up to

[Description]Define the NV bit image specified by n .
•n specifies the number of the defined NV bit image.
•xL, xH specifies (xL + xH ╳ 256) ╳ 8 dots in
bitimage you are defining.
•yL, yH specifies (yL + yH ╳ 256) ╳ 8 dots in
imageyou are defining.
[Note] • Frequently write command may be damaged NV memory. Therefore, it is
recommended to perform no more than 10 times a day, write the NV memory.
• After put an image into NV memory process, the printer performs a hardware reset
the user-defined characters, download bitmap and macros should be defined after
the completion of the command. Printer Clear receive and print buffer and resets
when power efficient model. At this time switch is DIP check again. (Does not
support hardware reset interface)
• This command cancels all been defined with this command NV bitmap.
•From the beginning of the processing of this command till the finish of
hardwarereset,mechanical operations (including initializing the position of the
printer head whenthe cover is open, paper feeding by using the FEED button,
etc.) cannot be performed.
• During processing this command, the printer is in BUSY when writing the data
to the NV user memory and stops receiving data. Therefore it is prohibit ted to
transmit the data including the real-time commands during the execution of this
command。
• NV bit image means a bit image which is defined in a non-volatile memory by FS q
andprinted by FS p.
•In standard mode, this command is effective only when processed at the beginning
ofthe line.
• This command is effective when 7 bytes <FS yH> is processed as a normal value.
• When the amount of data exceeds the capacity left in the range defined by xL, xH,
yL,yH, the printer processes xL, xH, yL, yH out of the defined range.
• In the first group of NV bit images, when any of the parameters xL, xH, yL, yH is
out of thedefinition range, this command is disabled.
• I n groups of NV bit images other than the first one, when the printer processes xL,
xH, yL,yH out of the defined range, it stops processing this command and starts
writing into theNV images. At this time, NV bit images that haven¡¯t been
defined are disabled(undefined), but any NV bit images before that are enabled.
•The d indicates the definition data. In data (d) a 1 bit specifies a dot to be printed
and a 0bit specifies a dot not to be printed.
• This command defines n as the number of a NV bit image. Numbers rise in order
from NVbit image 01H. Therefore, the first data group [xL xH yL yH d1...dk]
is NV bit image 01H,and the last data group [xL xH yL yH d1...dk] is NV bit
image n. The total agrees with thenumber of NV bit images specified by
command FS p.
16
 • A definition data of a NV bit image consists of [xL xH yL yH d1...dk]. Therefore,
when onlyone NV bit image is defined n=1, the printer processes a data group
[xL xH yL yHd1...dk] once. The printer uses ([data: (xL + xH ╳ 256) ╳ (yL +
yH ╳ 256) ╳ 8]+ [header :4])bytes of N V m em ory.
• The definition area in this printer is a maximum of 192K bytes. This
commandcan define several NV bit images, but cannot define a bit image data
whose totalcapacity [bit image data + header] exceeds 192K bytes.
•E ven setting the ASB, during the processing of the commandthe printer is not
transmitted ASB status or execution status detection.
•When this command is received during macro definition, the printer ends
macrodefinition,and begins performing this command.
•Once a NV bit image is defined, it is not erased by performing ESC @, reset, and
poweroff.
• This command performs only definition of a NV bit image and does not
performprinting.Printing of the NV bit image is performed by the FS p
command.

• When the LSB of n is 1, quadruple-size mode for Hazji characters is turned on.
[Details]• Only the lowest bit of n is valid.
•In quadruple-size mode, the printer prints the same size characters as
whendouble-width and double-height modes are both turned on.
• When quadruple-size mode is turned off using this command, the
followingcharacters are printed in normal size.
• When some of the characters on a line are different in height, all the characterson
the line are aligned at the baseline.
• When a character in the horizontal direction to enlarge, zoom in to the left of the
character to the right character as a reference.
• FS ! or GS ! can also select and cancel quadruple-size mode by
selectingdouble-height and double-width modes, and the setting of the last
receivedcommand is effective.
[Defaults] n=0
[Reference] FS !,GS !

 DLE EOT n

[Name] Real-time status transmission

[Format] ASCII DLE EOT n

Hex 10 04 n

Decimal 16 4 n
[Range] 1≤ n≤4

[Description] Transmits the selected printer status specified by n in real-time, according to the
following parameters:
n = 1: Transmit printer status
n = 2: Transmit off-line status
n = 3: Transmit error status
n = 4: Transmit paper roll sensor status
[Details] • In sending status, printer sends a byte without validation of DSR signal.

• This command is executed even when the printer is off-line, the receive buffer is full, or
there is an error status with a serial interface model.
• With a parallel interface model, this command can not be executed when the printer is
busy.
• When use GS a to enable Automatic Status Back (ASB), the status transmitted by DLE
EOT and the ASB status must be differentiated by using the table in Appendix D.
• This command is valid even when the printer is disabled with ESC = (Select peripheral
device).
• This command is being processed as soon as received by the printer.
[Note] • The status is transmitted whenever the data sequence of <10>H<04>H<n>(1 n 4) is
received.
Example:
In ESC m nL nH d1...dk, d1=<10>H, d2=<04>H, d3=<01>H

• This command should not be used within the data sequence of another command that
consists of 2 or more bytes.
Example:

If you attempt to transmit ESC 3 n to the printer, but DTR (DSR for the host computer)
goes to MARK before n is transmitted and then DLE EOT 3 interrupts before n is
received, the code <10>H for DLE EOT 3 is processed as the code for ESC 3 <10>H.
