Seiko Group BP-9000 owner manual Height expansion for enlarged characters DC4 DC4 h

9. Bar code and enlarged character

(10) Height expansion for enlarged characters: DC4 DC4 h

Format:	ASCII	DC4	DC4	h	n
	Hex	14	14	68	n
	Decimal	20	20	104	n

Function: Specifies the height expansion of enlarged characters. 0 ≤ n ≤ 127

The MSB of the parameter is masked.

If n = 0, the expansion specified in the setup mode is selected.

Enlarged character cell expansion takes priority over height expansion. If the height expansion exceeds the cell expansion when enlarged character data is input, the characters are enlarged to the cell expansion.

The default setting is the expansion specified in the setup mode.

(11) HMI for enlarged characters: DC4 DC4 i

Format:	ASCII	DC4	DC4	i	n1	n2
	Hex	14	14	69	n1	n2
	Decimal	20	20	105	n1	n2

Function:

0 ≤

0 ≤

Specifies the HMI (horizontal motion index) of enlarged characters.

n1 ≤ 255

n2 ≤ 15

The HMI indicates the horizontal distance between two adjacent characters, i.e., the width the print head moves after printing one character.

The HMI is (n1 + n2 x 256)/180”.

The high-order four bits of parameter n2 (bit 7 to bit 4) are ignored. The HMI can be set to zero.

After specifed command have priority over DC4 DC4 p or DC4 DC4 i. If the PITCH LOCK option is set to YES in the setup mode, this command is ignored.

The default setting is “10 cpi x widthwise expansion”.
