Program example for ESC i and ESC m
TM-U220
This printer may make “dot displacement” after autocutting. It is recommended to feed
approximately 2.116 mm or more for printing the next line to prevent “dot displacement after
cutting.”
Since the TM-U220D is not equipped with an autocutter, this command is ignored by the
TM-U220D.
The setting is partial cut (one point is left) when the printer is shipped.
The distance from print head to autocutter is about 27 mm {1.06 inches} in the TM-U220A and
TM-U220B.
