Explanation

Refer to

Note:If the Outline Font Data Command is sent without entering any data string for the specified character string number (e.g. [ESC]RV00;[LF][NUL]), the previous data string of the same character string number (No. 00 in the case of the above example) is deleted.

(1)Link field data string

After the link field No. is designated in the Format Command, data strings are linked using the Link Field Data Command to draw an image.

Up to 255 digits of data strings can be linked. Data exceeding the max. number of digits will be discarded.

Up to 99 data strings can be linked.

Up to 2048 bytes can be used as the command length ([ESC] to [NUL]) of the Link Field Data Command.

When the data string is omitted in the Link Field Data Command, the following process is performed:

c No process will be performed for the field which contains no print data due to the omission.

d When the field partially loses print data due to the omission, the only remaining data will be processed as print data.

The Link Field Data Command can be used for the bit map font fields, outline font fields, and bar code fields.

(The same result is obtained when any of the “RC,” “RV” or “RB” command code is designated.)
