1. INTERFACE CONFIGURATION 1.1. RS-232 Serial Interface 1.1.1. Specifications (Conforming to RS-232) Rating: RS-232C Synch method: Start-Stop synchronization method Handshake: DTR mode Baud rates: 4800, 9600, 19200, 38400 bps (Set by DIP switches) Bit length: 7, 8 bits (Set by DIP switches) Parity: Yes/No (Set by DIP switches) Parity bit: Odd/even (Set by DIP switches) Stop bit: 1 bit (Fixed) Signal polarity: Mark = logic 1 (-3 to -15 V) Space = logic 0 (+3 to +15 V) 1.1.2.

1.1.3. Communication Protocol 1) General description of operations in the DTR mode This mode abides by the DIP switch settings. (Ex-factory settings) This mode performs communication while handshaking with the DTR signals. In the operations to receive printer data, this mode controls the DTR signals by confirming the BUSY signal. A SPACE indicates that the printer is ready to receive data; conversely, a “mark” indicates that the printer cannot receive data.
PAGE 7
3) General description of operations in the XON/XOFF mode This mode is set when DIPSW #1 to #3 are turned OFF. This mode notifies the host of the XON (DC1) data when the printer can receive data and the XOFF (DC3) data when the printer cannot receive data, using the TXD signals. This functions so that XON outputs only 1 byte when the printer shifts from OFFLINE (printer busy) to ONLINE (printer ready) and; XOFF outputs 1 byte when the printer shifts from ONLINE (printer ready) to OFFLINE (printer busy) .

1.2. Parallel Interfaces (Amphenol 36 pins) 1.2.1. Specifications (Conforming to IEEE1284) Rating: Conforms to IEEE 1284 Mode: Compatibility Mode/Nibble Mode/Byte Mode Data transfer speed: 1000 to 6000 CPS Synch method: According to externally supplied strobe pulse Handshake: According to ACK and BUSY signals Logic level: Compatible to TTL 1.2.2. Signal array and explanations according to interface connector pin Pin No.

3. COMMAND DETAILS 3.1. Explanation of Terms • Reception buffer The buffer for storing data (reception data) received from the host, as it is called the reception buffer. Reception data is temporarily stored in the reception buffer, then processed sequentially. • Line buffer The buffer for storing image data for printing is called the line buffer. • Line buffer full The state in which the buffer has no more space available is called line buffer full.

3.11. Two-dimensional Bar Code PDF417 Command Details This command prints two-dimensional bar code PDF417. There are four types of commands, according to functions, for two-dimensional bar code PDF417. (1) Bar code type setting ( “x” “S”) (2) Bar code data setting ( “x” “D”) (3) Bar code printing ( “x” “P”) (4) Bar code expansion information acquisition ( “x” “I”) The following describes the functions in detail.
PAGE 127
The settings above are set individually, so the errors described below may be generated even if there is no particular problem in those settings. In such case, if the bar code is generated the (3) print command ( “x” “P”) is ignored. • Error is generated when generating a bar code, due to the combination of the bar code setting commands. • The bar code data that is generated exceeds the printable size of PDF417. • Print data exceeds the currently set print region.

3.13. Two-Dimensional Bar Code QR Code Command Details * Note that QR code is a registered trademark of DENSO WEB. This command is for printing 2-dimensional bar code QR codes. There are four functions of the commands relating to the 2-dimensional bar code QR codes, shown below.
PAGE 133
(2) Set bar code data This command sets the bar code print data. There are four types of data that can be set using QR codes. They are: numbers; English characters; binary; and Kanji. Furthermore, there are two types of data setting methods. One is to specify these along with the bar code data (data manual analysis), and the other is to specify only the bar code data (data automatic analysis). (3) Set page mode This command is not used.

This section describes precautions and methods for setting when printing with the printer. Bar code widths are set for each bar code according to the mode. The following describes each mode and the dot counts. The user must ensure the specified printing position and quiet zone at the position where the bar code begins. 5.1.1.

5.2. Appendix 2: Status Specifications 5.2.1. ENQ Command Status This status is the one the printer transmits using the ENQ command.
PAGE 148
5.2.3. Automatic Status Automatic status is a group of states that are automatically returned from the printer to the host when the printer’s status has changed. Automatic status is composed of “Header – 1,” “Header – 2” and “plurality of bytes of the printer status and is continuously returned to the host. The host always uses an identifying method to identify the data for every byte received.
PAGE 149
2. Header -2 Header -2 is the 1 byte length information transmitted from the second byte of the automatic status. The table below shows the composition of the Header -2. Header -2 represents the automatic status version (called automatic status version below) using bit 1 to bit 3 and bit 5. For reference, the table below shows the relationship of actual version bytes and the Header -2.
PAGE 150
3. Printer Status Printer status is the status of the printer sent from the third byte of the automatic status. Printer status is returned for (transmitted byte count – 2 in Header – 1). Printer status is always updated for new information. (No log exists.) The following shows the composition of the status.
