9. Bar code and enlarged character
(6) Arrangement of enlarged characters: DC4 DC4 a
Format: | ASCII | DC4 | DC4 | a | n |
| Hex | 14 | 14 | 61 | n |
| Decimal | 20 | 20 | 97 | n |
Function: Specifies the standard position for adjusting enlarged characters in the vertical direction.
n = 00H, 30H: Base line is adjusted to the N’th dot from the top. (N = 20 x cell expansion)
01H, 31H: Descender is adjusted to the N’th dot from the top. (N = 24 x cell expansion)
02H, 32H: Center is adjusted to the N’th dot from the top. (N = 12 x cell expansion)
03H, 33H: Ascender is adjusted to the N’th dot from the top. (N = 1 x cell expansion)
The MSB of the parameter is masked. Any parameters other than those shown above are ignored.
The arrangement and position specified here are valid if the enlarged character rotational angle is not 0 degree. The default setting is n = 00H,30H.
(7) Cell expansion for enlarged characters: DC4 DC4 c
Format: | ASCII | DC4 | DC4 | c | n |
| Hex | 14 | 14 | 63 | n |
| Decimal | 20 | 20 | 99 | n |
Function: Specifies cell expansion for enlarged characters. 0 ≤ n ≤ 127
The cell has the size of (24/180” x cell magnification). The MSB of the parameter is masked.
If n = 0, the expansion specified in the setup mode is selected.
The cell expansion is specified at the beginning of the line. If there is character data on the line, it becomes valid on the following line.
Enlarged character cell expansion takes priority over the height expansion. If the height expansion exceeds cell expansion when enlarged character data is input, the characters are enlarged to the cell expansion value.
The default setting is the expansion specified in the setup mode.
