DBCS Address Vectors

RS-232 Syntax:

ESC S n or X'1B;53;n'

where:

nSpecifies the DBCS address vector.

v33 for address vector 1

v34 for address vector 2

v35 for address vector 3

Purpose:

To determine the address ranges that are assumed for the DBCS and

SBCS code pages.

Remarks:

vThe DBCS address vector value is sent over the serial line in status bytes 9 and 10.

vThe vector ranges should be stored in the printer at the time of download.

vAll ranges are for DBCS addresses. SBCS addresses are assumed to be those outside the defined vector ranges.

vThe unused vector ranges are set to 00,00.

Example:

Assume there will be 2 vector ranges required: 82–9F and E9–FC. An example of how print data is interpreted follows.

Hex data sent:

89;30;E9;A0;A0;40;41;82;41;0A

Interpreted as:

v8930 from the DBCS code page

vE9A0 from the DBCS code page

vA0, 40, and 41 from the SBCS code page

v8241 from the DBCS code page

v0A is an end of line and line feed command.

Setup Commands

Setup commands change character font, inter-character spacing, and the target print station.

Set Print Mode

RS-232 Syntax:

ESC ! n or X'1B;21;n'

where:

nSpecifies print characteristics, such as user-defined thermal and impact code pages.
