XES Command Format

XES commands take the following format:

▲The escape character s (1Bh or a user-defined key)

▲The instruction, sometimes preceded by a plus sign

(+)

▲User-entered variables, if required for the command

▲An optional comma (,) is used to print a Configuration/Status Page (Job Status Sheet) after a job boundary command is detected.

▲An optional comment to be printed on the Configuration/Status Page

▲A line end (either CR, LF, NL or CR/LF) is sometimes required

Two Types of Escape Sequences

There are two types of escape sequences:

▲Job Control Commands

▲Non-Job Control Commands

Job Control Commands

A job control command either sets job boundaries or formats the printed output in some way. Job control commands are used to reset the printer, start a print job, or load fonts, graphics or forms. An optional comment of up to 132 characters, if preceded by a comma, will be printed on a Configuration/Status Page upon the receipt of the next job control command. All jobs should begin and end with one or more job control commands.

A job control command always includes a plus (+) symbol following the escape character, and it always includes an instruction. It may include an
