9. Bar code and enlarged character
(14) Enlarged character cell offset: DC4 DC4 o
Format: | ASCII | DC4 | DC4 | o | n |
| Hex | 14 | 14 | 6F | n |
| Decimal | 20 | 20 | 111 | n |
Function: Specifies the cell offset for enlarged characters. 0 ≤ n ≤ 255
This command specifies the cell offset for the enlarged characters in 1/180”. The cell offset is used to execute a line feed (LF) command.
In the enlarged character mode, the line is fed by a pitch of (24 + cell offset)/180” x cell expansion.
The VMI is invalid and the cell offset is 6 by default.
(15) Enlarged character pitch: DC4 DC4 p
Format: | ASCII | DC4 | DC4 | p | n |
| Hex | 14 | 14 | 70 | n |
| Decimal | 20 | 20 | 112 | n |
Function: Specifies the pitch of enlarged characters. n = 00H, 30H: 10 cpi
01H, 31H: 12 cpi
02H, 32H: Proportional
The MSB of the parameter is masked. Any sequences other than the above parameters are ignored.
If the fixed pitch is selected, enlarged characters have the following width: 10 cpi: (18 x 180”) x widthwise expansion
12 cpi: (15 x 180”) x widthwise expansion
In the proportional mode, proportional characters are expanded by the same ratio.
When the rotational angle for enlarged characters is set to 90 or 270 degrees, characters other than graphic character are printed at a pitch of (24/180”) x length expansion. If the PITCH LOCK option is set to YES in the setup mode, this command is ignored.
The HMI is invalidated and the character pitch is 10 cpi by default.
