Command | Description | Difference between previous product | |
|
|
| and new product emulation mode. |
|
|
| |
1B 4A n | Print and feed paper | This command uses n in terms of n/360 inches. Since the | |
|
|
| A793 had a fundamental step of 1/152 inch and the A799 |
|
|
| has a fundamental step of 1/203 inch, the actual line |
|
|
| spacing will not exactly match the requested spacing. |
1B 59 n1 n2 d1...dn | Select | In A793 emulation mode, the printer scales the graphics to | |
|
|
| provide the best match. |
1B 5C n1 n2 | Set relative print position | The parameter to this command is in units of dots. | |
|
|
| However, the command moves and aligns to character |
|
|
| positions. In A793 emulation mode, this command |
|
|
| calculates how many character positions to move based on |
|
|
| the A793 character width in dots (10) versus the A799 (13). |
1B 61 n | Select justification | This command does true dot resolution alignment for | |
|
|
| centering versus |
1D 2A n1 n2 d1...dn] | Define downloaded bit image | In A793 emulation mode, this command scales the | |
|
|
| incoming data to provide a best match to the size of |
|
|
| the image as it printed on A793. |
1D 2F m | Print downloaded bit image | In A793 emulation mode, this command scales the | |
|
|
| incoming data to provide a best match to the size of the |
|
|
| image as it printed on A793. |
