Portable Printers

Cameo and QL 3 Common Information

Both of these printers are stocked by Worth Data for the convenience of our users who need portable printing.

These printers do not require any special protocol; they do not require the “wake-up byte” as do other printers. They do require a special cable that can be ordered from Worth Data (part #C12); cable pin-outs are available in Appendix C: Cable Pin-outs.

Shipped with every Cameo or QL 3 printer ordered is a CD ROM with the Programmers Manual in PDF format and a label design program – LabelVista. This program allows you to design the program and create multiple format files that can be sent to the printer where they become resident in flash. Variable fields are defined and can then be filled in by the program when in operation.

Keep in mind the following information when using these versatile printers:

•The printer turn on ("Wake-up") is accomplished by the RF Terminal toggling the DSR line on the printer, so only the @S command and the data you are sending to the printer is needed.

•Once the RF Terminal has turned on the printer, it stays on until the host program turns it off using the POWER OFF COMMAND "ESC(0x1b)`p'(0x70)" described in the Printing Systems Programming Manual, or until the automatic shut-down takes place (2 minute default).

•The 231 character limit applies to your command string. See your Portable Printing Systems Programming Manual for details on programming your printer.

Zebra Cameo Printer

The Zebra “Cameo ” Printers are portable direct thermal receipt printers, (not label printers – the QL 3 below prints labels). Bar codes can be printed on the receipts, but you can’t print labels.

One model of the Cameo printer is available with a magnetic stripe reader, allowing magnetic stripe input to the RF Terminal using the @M (magstripe input) command.

The Cameo printer with magstripe input is capable of reading Track 1, Track 2 or Tracks 1&2. See your Portable Printing Systems Programming Manual for the correct character string to send in the @M command to turn on the magstripe reader. (see page 6-2 for details).

When the Terminal sends data to the host, it sends it in the following format:

RF Terminal ID + DATA + CR

Typically, the data is simply a string of characters, but in the instance of data coming from the magstripe reader, there are some additional characters you need to be aware of. The magstripe reader sends its data in the following formats:

Track 1:

Track 2:

Track 1&2:

T1: DATA

T2: DATA

T1: DATAT2: DATA
