4.6.2 OPOS
EPSON OPOS ADK provides a tool, “TMFLogo” that enables registration of a bitmap image in the NVRAM of an EPSON TM series printer. The tool can be used from the device specific settings of the SetupPOS utility. The bitmap image in the NVRAM can be printed with a printer by using the DirectIO method. Concerning the available NVRAM size for the
4.6.2.1 Printing method
Print stored bitmap by DirectIO method.
•*Command : PTR_DI_PRINT_FLASH_BITMAP
Note
NV graphics data shares the domain used by user NV memory record data; therefore, the entire capacity of the domain to which NV graphics data and user NV memory data are defined is targeted. The
4.6.2.2 LetterQuality
It is possible to change the speed and quality of a bitmap by using the XXXLetterQuality property.
RecLetterQuality = TRUE ‘print Receipt’s bitmap in quality mode.
RecLetterQuality = FALSE ‘print Receipt’s bitmap in speed mode.
4.6.2.3 Setting of printing position by escape sequence
POS Printers support escape sequences that can be treated as printing data. The following commands are the escape sequence command for setting of printing position.
Name | Data | Remarks |
|
|
|
Center | ESC cA | Aligns following text in the center. |
|
|
|
Right justify | ESC rA | Aligns following text at the right. |
|
|
|
Normal | ESC N | Restores printer characteristics to |
|
| normal condition. |
|
|
|
Note1: manner of ”ESC cA” and “ESC rA”
Characteristics are reset at the end of each print method or by a “Normal” sequence, so these escape sequences cannot be used in the following manner.
OPOSPOSPrinter1.PrintNormal PTR_S_RECEIPT, Chr(&H1B) + ”cA” + ”123” OPOSPOSPrinter1.PrintNormal PTR_S_RECEIPT, “456” + Chr(13) + Chr(10)
The “123” characters will be printed in the center, but not under “456”. When using a new method to print characters, it is necessary to add the desired escape sequence again.
