ESC/P Command Reference What is ESC/P? ESC/P is one type of control codes used for printers. With the codes introduced in this document, various labels can be created and printed. In this document, ESC/P codes are provided as both ASCII and binary codes. When sending codes to the printer, make sure that the binary codes are used, otherwise the printer cannot parse the codes.

ESC/P Command Reference 3.2 Characters This system uses single-byte character codes and is installed with five bitmap fonts (Brougham, Letter Gothic Bold, Brussels, Helsinki and San Diego) as well as three outline fonts (Letter Gothic Bold, Brussels and Helsinki. Fixed pitch or proportional pitch (PS pitch) can be specified for any of the fonts. However, there are fonts that are better with a fixed pitch and fonts that are better with a proportional pitch (PS pitch).
ESC/P Command Reference 3.2.2 Character pitches Pitch refers to the spacing between neighboring characters. When characters are arranged with a fixed pitch, they will be evenly spaced. If characters extend over several lines, they will align in straight rows. abc a Fixed spacing b c Fixed spacing When characters are arranged with a proportional pitch, the spacing will vary depending on the character. (For example, “W” is wide but “I” is narrow.
ESC/P Command Reference 3.3 Print position The print position is the standard position for printing characters, bitmaps, and barcodes. There is a horizontal print position and vertical print position, which are the reference points for vertical position movement and horizontal position movement. 3.3.1 Characters Characters are arranged with their top edges aligned with the print position. The baseline of each character is the bottom edge of the character, regardless of size, font, etc.
ESC/P Command Reference 3.4 Line feed amount The amount of line feed is the amount of vertical movement from the print position of one line to the print position of the next line. HHHHHHHHHHHHH Line feed amount HHHHHHHHHHHHH HHHHHHHHHHHHH The line feed amount is specified with ESC 0, ESC 2, ESC A, and ESC 3. Within a single line of text, the tallest character is determined, and the baseline is moved so that the top edge of that character is at the vertical print position.
