[Notes] Frequent write command execution may cause damage the NV memory. Therefore, it is recommended to write the NV memory 10 times or less a day. ·This command cancels all NV bit images that have already been defined by this command. The printer can not redefine only one of several data definitions previously defined. In this case, all data needs to be sent again. · Before the ending of the processing of this command mechanical operations (including initializing the position of the printer head when the cover is open, paper feeding by using the FEED button, etc.)cannot be performed. NV bit image means a bit image which is defined in a non-volatile memory by FS q and printed by FS p. · In standard mode, this command is effective only when processed at the beginning of the line. · This command is effective when 7 bytes <FS~yH> is processed as a normal value. · When the amount of data exceeds the capacity left in the range defined by xL, xH, yL, yH, the printer processes xL, xH, yL, yH out of the defined range. · In the first group of NV bit images, when any of the parameters xL, xH, yL, yH is out of the definition range, this command is disabled. · In groups of NV bit images other than the first one, when the printer processes xL, xH, yL, yH out of the defined range, it stops processing this command and starts writing into the NV images. At this time, NV bit images that haven’t been defined are disabled (undefined), but any NV bit images before that are enabled. · The d indicates the definition data. In data ( d) a 1 bit specifies a dot to be printed and a 0 bit specifies a dot not to be printed. · This command defines n as the number of a NV bit image. Numbers rise in order from NV bit image 01H. Therefore, the first data group [xL xH yL yH d1...dk] is NV bit image 01H, and the last data group [xL xH yL yH d1...dk] is NV bit image n. The total agrees with the number of NV bit images specified by command FS p. · A definition data of a NV bit image consists of [xL xH yL yH d1...dk]. Therefore, when only one NV bit image is defined n=1, the printer processes a data group [xL xH yL yH d1...dk] once. The printer uses ([data: ( xL + xH × 256) × ( yL + yH × 256) × 8] + [header:4]) bytes of NV memory. · The definition area in this printer is a maximum of 1M bits (128K bytes). This command can define several NV bit images, but cannot define a bit image data whose total capacity
[bit image data + header] exceeds 1M bytes (128K bytes). · The printer is busy immediately before writing into NV memory. · When this command is received during macro definition, the printer ends macro definition, and begins performing this command. · Once a NV bit image is defined, it is not erased by performing ESC @, reset, and power off. · This command performs only definition of a NV bit image and does not perform printing.

In standard mode, the vertical direction is the paper feed direction, and the horizontal direction is perpendicular to the paper feed direction. However, when character orientation changes in 90° clockwise-rotation mode, the relationship between vertical and horizontal directions is reversed. In page mode, vertical and horizontal directions are based on the character orientation. When characters are enlarged with different sizes on one line, all the characters on the line are aligned at the baseline. The ESC! command can also turn double-width and double-height modes on or off. However, the setting of the last received command is effective.

[Notes] If any of the status items in the table above are enabled, the printer transmits the status when this command is executed. The printer automatically transmits the status whenever the enabled status item changes. The disabled status items may change, in this case, because each status transmission represents the current status. If all status items are disabled, the ASB function is also disabled. The following four status bytes are transmitted without confirming whether the host is ready to receive data. The four status bytes must be consecutive, except for the XOFF code. Since this command is executed after the data is processed in the receive buffer, there may be a time lag between data reception and status transmission. When the printer is disabled by ESC = (Select peripheral device), the four status bytes are transmitted whenever the status changes. When using DLE EOT, GS I, or GS r, the status transmitted by these commands and ASB status must be differentiated. The status to be transmitted are as follows:

Appendix A: Code128 Bar Code .........................................................................................................
In CODE128 bar code system, it is possible to represent 128 ASCII characters and 2-digit numerals
using one bar code character that is defined by combining one of the 103 bar code characters and 3
code sets. Each code set is used for representing the following characters:
· Code set A: ASCII characters 00H to 5FH
· Code set B: ASCII characters 20H to 7FH
· Code set C: 2-digit numeral characters using one character (100 numerals from 00 to 99)
The following special characters are also available in CODE128:
· SHIFT characters
In code set A, the character just after SHIFT is processed as a character for code set B. In code set
B, the character just after SHIFT is processed as a character for code set A.
SHIFT characters cannot be used in code set C.
· Code set selection character (CODE A, CODE B, CODE C).
This character switches the following code set to code set A, B, or C.
· Function character (FNC1, FNC2, FNC3, FNC4)
The usage of function characters depends on the application software. In code set C, only FNC1 is
available.

Appendix B: Page Mode ......................................................................................................................
The printer operates in two print modes only when the paper roll is selected as the print sheet: standard mode and page mode. In standard mode, the printer prints and feeds paper each time it receives print data or paper feed commands. In page mode, all the received print data and paper feed commands are processed in the specified memory, and the printer executes no operations. All the data in the memory is then printed when an ESC FF or FF command is received. For example, when the printer receives the data "ABCDEF" in standard mode, it prints "ABCDEF" and feeds the paper by one line. In page mode, "ABCDEF" is written to the specified printing area in memory, and the position in memory for the next print data is shifted by one line. The ESC L command puts the printer into page mode, and all commands received thereafter are processed in page mode. Executing an ESC FF command prints the received data collectively, and executing an FF command restores the printer to standard mode after the received data is printed collectively. Executing an ESC S command restores the printer to standard mode without printing the received data in page mode; the received data is cleared from memory instead.
Figure B.1 Shifting Between Standard Mode and Page Mode
- The available commands and parameters are the same for both standard and page modes. However, these values can be set independently in each mode for the ESC SP, ESC 2,ESC 3, and FS S commands. For these commands, different settings can be stored for each mode.
Formatting of print data in the printable area is performed as follows:
- The printable area is set using ESC W. If all printing and feeding are complete before the printer receives the ESC W command, the left side (as you face the printer) is taken as the origin (x0, y0) of the printable area. The printable rectangular area is defined by the length (dx dots) extending from and including the origin (x0, y0) in the x direction (perpendicular to the paper feed direction), and by the length (dy dots) in the y direction (paper feed direction). (If the ESC W command is not used, the printable area remains the default value.)
- When the printer receives print data after ESC W sets the printable area and ESC T sets the printing direction, the print data is formatted within the printable area so that point A in Figure B.2 is at the beginning of the printable area as a default value. (When a character is printed, point A is the baseline.) Print data containing downloaded bit images or bar codes is formatted so that the bottom point of the left side of the image data (point B in Figure B.3) is aligned with the baseline. However, any Human Readable Interpretation (HRI) characters are printed under the baseline. At the points labeled Point B, if characters (such as double-height characters) higher than normal size characters or downloaded bit image characters are received, any part of the character higher than the normal-size character is not printed.
- If the print data (including the space to the right of a character) exceeds the printable area before the printer receives a command (e.g., LF or ESC J) that includes line feeding, a line feed is executed automatically within the printable area. The print position, therefore, moves to the beginning of the next line. The line feed amount depends on the values set by commands (such as ESC 2 and ESC 3).
- The default value of the line spacing is set to 1/6 inch and corresponds to 31 dots in the vertical direction. If print data for the next line contains extended characters that are higher than double-height characters, bit images taking up two or more lines, or bar codes higher than normal characters, the amount of line feeding may be insufficient, resulting in overlapping of the characters' higher-order dots with the previous line. To avoid this, increase the amount of line spacing. Example When printing a downloaded bit image of six bytes in the vertical direction, use the following formula: {number of vertical dots (8×6) - number of dots for feeding at the beginning of the printable area (24)} × vertical motion unit conversions (180/180) = 24 Therefore, 24 dots are required for feeding. Use the following commands: ESC W xL, xH, yL, yH, dxL, dxH, dyL, dyH ESC T n ESC 3 24 ¬ Set line spacing to be added. LF GS / 1 ESC 2 ¬ Reset the line spacing to 1/6 inch. NOTE: Vertical and horizontal motion units are 1/180 in the vertical direction and 1/203 in the horizontal
direction; therefore, the position you specify varies depending on the printing direction. Setting the vertical motion unit to 1/180 using the GS P command does not change the current print position.
