(52)Starting and ending a macro definition (GS :)

Code: [1D] h + [3A] h

This command specifies starting and ending of a macro definition.

Up to 2048 bytes can be used as contents in defining a macro. Any portion where this 2048 bytes is exceeded is not defined.

The definition contents are not cleared even when ESC @ (printer initiation) is executed, so ESC @ can be included in the contents of a macro definition.

Ordinary printing operations can be executed in the middle of macro definition.

A “macro” is a string of commands corresponding to the user's purpose, taken from the control commands of this printer, which are arranged to form a single command in order to carry out daily operations efficiently. They can be used in exactly the same way as existing commands can be used.
