When data exist inside the print buffer, this command is ignored.

When a download bit image has not been defined, this command is ignored.

A portion of a download bit image exceeding one line length is not printed.

A download character and a download bit image cannot be defined simultaneously.

(37) Starting / Ending Macro Definition (GS :) Code : [1D]h + [3A]h

Specifying starting / ending macro definition. Maximum content available for macro definition is 2048 bytes. A portion exceeding 2048 bytes is not defined.

Even with ESC @ (initialization of the printer) having been executed, defined content is not cleared. Therefore, it is possible to include ESC @ into the content of macro definition.

Normal printing operation is carried out even while in macro definition

(38)Macro Execution (GS ^ n1 n2 n3)

Code : [1D]h + [5E]h + n1 + n2 + n3

*{0 ≤ n1 ≤ FF} {0 ≤ n2 ≤ FF}

{0 ≤ 3 ≤ 1} Data is described in Hex code. Executing contents defined in macro.

"n1 - n3" indicate as follows:

n1 : The number of times of macro execution

n2 : Waiting time on macro execution

Waiting time of n2 x 100 msec is given for every execution. n3 : Macro execution mode

Execution by FEED SW

: After waiting for lapse of time specified by n2,

 

the ERROR LED flickers and the LF switch is waited

 

to be pressed. When it is pressed, the macro is executed once.

 

This action is repeated n1 times.

When this command is received while in macro definition, suspension of macro definition is indicated. At this time, the defined content is cleared.

No execution takes place when macro is held undefined or n1=0.

While in macro execution with n3=1, paper feed with the LF SW is not available.
