[DenedArea] Thermal : -
Slip : 0 ≤ n ≤ 2, 48 ≤ n ≤ 50, (“0” ≤ n ≤ “2”)
Validation : 0 ≤ n ≤ 2, 48 ≤ n ≤ 50, (“0” ≤ n ≤ “2”)
[Initial Value] Thermal : -
Slip : Character rotation cancelled (n = 0)
Validation : Character rotation cancelled (n = 0)
[Function]
<Thermal>
Only setting is valid
Setting is valid after switching to slip or validation.
<Slip>,<Validation>
Specifies direction to rotate print (clockwise) or to cancel rotation for subsequent data, according to
the n value.
n Set rotation
0, 48 Cancelled (0° rotation)
1, 49 270° rotation
2, 50 90° rotation
Rotated characters cannot be applied with underlines or upperlines.
The relationship between double-tall and double-wide is reverse to when cancelled when rotating.
When in Kanji character mode, rotation is effective for both ANK characters and Japanese charac-
ters.
Kanji character spacing is always applied with the two-byte Kanji character spacing value.
In standard specifications, rotation of IBM block is changed to vertical 8 dot fonts.
The following are precautions for 7 x 9 font character font specification.
• Characters are printed with 5 x 9 fonts (2P=1).
• Download characters registered with 5 x 9 fonts are printed.
• When rotation is cancelled, the characters return to 7 x 9 fonts. (When there is not 5 x 9 specifica-
tion while rotation is specified.)
When page mode is selected, only setting is valid
Setting is valid after switching to line mode.
