PRINT TEST 1 shows a pattern of all printable characters. Use this to check if the printer
operates correctly.
PRINT TEST 2 produces a standard letter (ECMA-132) which can be used for measuring
the printer's throughput.
PRINT TEST 3 lists all available fonts, contains the page count to identify the actual
number of printed pages, and gives information on technical releases which are intended
for service purposes.
The print tests are printed using the parameters set in the menu, e.g. fonts, pitch etc. Refer to
section "Menu Mode" for details.

causes
the printer to change in the STOP-mode and in the display appears the message MACRO 2.
Pressing key [] confirms the macro selection and changes the printer into the READY or BUSY
mode. After this sample the printer the message on the display is READY 2 IPP. That means macro
2 with IBM Proprinter emulation is selected.
If you press one of the above described key erroneously, press
for correction.
Note: Macro selection means a change of all configuration parameters of the macro concerned.

Lower Row Keys
In case a certain application requires a specific vertical positioning of the printout on a continuous
form, two possibilities are provided for the READY or BUSY mode:

vertical position adjustment VERT.POS.ADJ. with key

fanfold displacement FANFOLD DIS with key

Vertical Position Adjustment (VERT.POS.ADJ.)
This can be set differently for each macro to exactly position the printout in relation to the top
edge of the form in use. Using this function, the TOP MARGIN and BOTTOM MARGIN settings are
taken into account as well.
The parameter is part of the printer's configuration set up memory and can be stored with the
SAVE function.
The VERT. POS.ADJ. mode can directly be called up in the status READY or BUSY by pressing key
In this case a set-up is possible for the actually paper source of the selected macro. With
TRACTOR V, or MANUAL V (and only for printer PP 405 also BIN x V (x = 1-3)) the printer asks for
the value of the actually paper source.

This parameter covers a range of -15/60 to +240/ 60 Inch (1/60" 0,42 mm), where "-" is up the
page and "+" (plus) is further down the page (see also the table in Appendix A Configuring
the Printer for VERT.POS.ADJ.).
Note: The set up of VERT.POS.ADJ. Will become effective at the next page of the form.
Therefore, it is recommended to perform VERT.POS.ADJ. set-up as long as the paper is in the
park position and before starting the print job.

Note:
Fanfold Displacement (FANFOLD DIS)
A continuous form can manually be displaced by this function when it is either
correctly loaded at the park position or already fed and partly printed. The Fanfold
Displacement mode can only be called up in the status READY or BUSY

Printer Operation
How to Use this Function
Preprinted paper (e.g. bills of lading) has to be adjusted exactly. Following errors are possible:

The printed value is too high - the fanfold paper has to be moved a little bit higher.

The printed value is too low - the fanfold paper has to be moved a little bit lower. No
backward movement is possible for a form in park position or with the print head on the
first line. The displacement will become effective on the next page. A negative
displacement is possible if this function is used during a current print job (not at the
beginning of the page).
After pressing
again, paper is fed in case it was in the park position. In all other cases the
paper remains at its actual position. Each further pressing of

Each further pressing of

The offset to the current position is shown on the display. Dependent on the status of the internal
print buffer, the offset will be immediately executed after having resumed the printing or after
having printed the remaining data in the internal print buffer. The offset value is not stored in the
configuration set up and influences only the actual line counter. The maximum displacement
range is the distance between the actual position and the page border plus one full page, but no
more than 999 steps (nearly 1 inch). A backward movement is possible from the actual position
to the top of that page.

Printer Operation
There are two possibilities for the displacement to become active:

If a positive displacement is set before starting the print job the printer will move the paper
into the right position first and then start printing.

If the displacement is set during a print job, the printer prints the contents of the print
buffer. Afterwards, the displacement will become active. All following data are at the new
position.


Insert or Eject key
After pressing the Insert/Eject key, fanfold paper from the park position is fed into the print
position, and fanfold paper from the print position is fed into the cut/tear off position
(depending on the setting or the printer type). Paper that has been retracted into the
cut/tear off by the Insert/Eject key will be moved automatically into the print position once
the printer receives a print command
Note: This key is not active while the top cover is open.

The Paper Feed Key
and the Reverse Paper Feed Key
The paper moves 1/90 Inch (0,28 mm) in the direction of the arrows. Holding down the key
results in continuous feeding.
Forward movement of paper from the park position is stopped at the print position. Forward
movement of paper from the print position is stopped at the tear off position or it will be cut off
(depending of the setting or of the printer type). Backward movement of paper is stopped at
either the park position, the print position or the tear off position.

The position of each cassette is dependent on the paper length to be processed. The cassette
with the shortest paper needs to be mounted first because the distance between the pick-up
rollers of the cassette and the push rollers inside the printer is the shortest at position '1'. For
example, if envelopes are to be processed, so mount cassette type B into cassette position '1'.

Configuration of the Printer
What is Configuring
This chapter describes how to use the menu settings via the operator panel to set up or configure
the printer and computer system in a way that they can communicate correctly with each other.
Communication between the two requires that both the computer operating system and the
printer have the same communication settings or features. The most important values of the
serial Interface are:





Interface Type:
Baud rate,
Parity,
Protocol,
Word length.
You may also need to change some of the printer's other features depending on your hardware
and application requirements, for example:


Paper handling
Text processing.
The MENU mode allows you to access the configuration memory. All settings of the printer are
stored in this memory and can be printed out on a list. The possible settings are discussed in
detail in the following pages.
The menu printout illustrates the actual printer setup. The following steps show which keys to
use to start this printout.

Explanation of the printouts on the previous pages
The heading PRINT OUT gives information about the VERSION of the printer's firmware.
The next two headings are followed by two columns of standard settings:

INTERFACE - for communication between the computer operating system and the printer
it is necessary to have the same communication settings or features. The standard settings for both
printers are:






8 Kbyte
8 bit
shared interface type
9600 baud
parity ignore


ADJUSTMENT - all parameters are for adjustment of the printer and the paper (see also
the following pages).
The last part of the printout is a list with all MACRO settings. In this case MACRO 1 is marked
with an asterisk () which identifies it as the active macro.
If you make modifications in the active macro without saving them you will find the new settings
under the heading CURRENT SETTINGS. Unless they are saved, the modifications will stay active
only until the printer is switched off in which case the macro settings marked with the asterisk
will be reactivated.

Explanation of the Individual Menu Items
Main Functions
The following main functions are available:

MACRO SELECT
To select one of the four macros which can be used for quickly changing the printer settings for
different applications. For example: Application A need's fanfold paper cut into single sheets with
a top margin of one, application B processes fanfold paper in a batch with a top margin of six.
Simply by pressing MACRO SELECT the macro containing the information for the specific application
requirements can be activated.

CHANGE MACRO
In this part it is possible to create a macro for specific application needs (For detail information
sees chapter Function CHANGE MACRO beginning on the next page).
Note:
Most parameters can be set via the control panel or via escape sequences from the host
computer. The changes via escape sequences are visible in the column CURRENT SETTINGS

INSTALLATION
In the first sub function named INTERFACE you can manipulate parameters to enable
communication with the host.
In the second sub function labeled ADJUSTMENT you can optimize your printouts. (Detail
information you will find in the Sub function INTERFACE / ADJUSTMENT)

SAVE
Any desired changes to the default settings can be saved here. After power on the new settings are
activated.
During executing of this function the display is flashing SAVING NOW.

PRINT OUT
This function initiates a printout of the parameter settings and macro definitions. This printout is
helpful for future reference and when macros are to be changed.
To actually start the print operation it is necessary to leave the STOP mode (by pressing the
key).
While this function is operating the display shows PRINT OUT. Main

Indicates the number of characters printed per inch (10, 12, 15, 17, 18, 20 or proportional).
Any pitch setting can be combined with any available font. In some cases this may conflict with
font designs. The pitch setting is, therefore, a matter of personal taste.

Page Length (only for fanfold paper)
Page length is expressed in terms of lines within the range of 5 to 132 lines. Any page
length setting is based on six lines per inch, regardless of the number of lines per inch
selected in the line setting or defined by the application.
The following indicates the number of lines for the most common paper sizes

The page length setting is the basis from which perforation skip, TEAR-OFF mode and margins
operate. An incorrect page length, therefore, gives an incorrect perforation skip.

Vertical Positioning Adjustment (VERT.POS.ADJ.)
This function changes the vertical position in the current macro for the five different paper paths
TRACTOR V-POS, MANUAL V-POS or only for the Multi-purpose Printer the BIN x V-POS (x = 1 up
to 3) exactly position the printout in relation to the top edge of the form in use. It is meant to be
a corrective parameter to meet variations in paper size and preprinted material. Using this
function, the TOP MARGIN and BOTTOM MARGIN setting is taken into account as well.
This parameter covers for fanfold paper a range of -15/60 +240/60 of an inch and for cut sheets
from -15/60 to +16/60 Inch, where "-" (minus) is up the page and "+" (plus) down page.
The following table shows some values in inches and millimeters.
+/-1 = +/- 1/50“ = +/-0,42 mm

+/-2 = +/- 50“ = +/-0,85 mm
+/-3 = +/- 3/50“ = +/-1,27 mm
+/-10 = +/- 50“ = +/-4.23 mm
+/-11 = +/- 11/50“ = +/-4,66 mm
+/-4 = +/- 4/50“ = +/-1,69 mm
+/-5 = +/- 5/50“ = +/-2,12 mm
+/-12 = +/- 12/50“ = +/-5,08 mm
+/-13 = +/- 13/50“ = +/-5,50 mm
+/-6 = +/- 6/50“ = +/-2,54 mm
+/-7 = +/- 7/50“ = +/-2,96 mm
+/-14 = +/- 14/50“ = +/-5,93 mm
+/-15 = +/- 15/50“ = +/-6,35 mm
+/-8 = +/- 8/50“ = +/-0,42 mm
+/-16 = +/- 16/50“ = +/-6,77 mm

Appendix A Configuration of the printer
The setup of VERT.POS.ADJ. will become effective at the next page of the form.
Therefore, it is recommended to perform VERT.POS.ADJ. sets up as long as the paper is in the
park position and before starting the print job.
Attention:

LEFT MARGIN
is set in 1/10 Inch steps, depending on the actual selection. The first left margin position is 1/20
Inch from the left edge of the paper which means that the letter H in regular "Data" font would
be positioned from the left edge of the paper. The left margin can be set to a maximum of 15/10
Inch.

RIGHT MARGIN
is set to print position 80, 132 or 136, always measured from the position of the first possible, not
actual, left margin setting.
The left margin setting is influenced by the physical setting of the left tractor. The above
specifications are only correct if the tractors are in the original positions, i.e., the left perforation
is aligned with the center mark on the plastic
plate (distance between the marks is 1/10 Inch.

TOP MARGIN
indicates the first print line and is always set in steps of 1/6 Inch. The position of the first margin
is 1/6 from the top of the paper and indicates the baseline of the letter H in upright "Data" font
(see illustration). The top margin can be set to a maximum of 16/6 down on the paper.

BOTTOM MARGIN
indicates the last print line. Going beyond this margin automatically initiates a form feed. The
bottom margin is always set in steps of 1/6 Inch. The bottom margin can be set to a maximum
of 8/6 Inch Move Up.
The above specifications are influenced by the settings in "Vertical Position" (see section "V.POS"
in this chapter).


PERFORATION SKIP
If PERF. SKIP is set to YES the printer starts to print after specified top margin and stops
printing before the bottom Margin.
 If PERF. SKIP is set to NO the printer ignored the top and bottom margin and prints from the
very first line to the very last. That means that on a standard 11" paper 66 lines are available
for printing.
 Overlapping YES means lift up the print head by passing perfpration.


PAPER SOURCE
The printer offers three input possibilities:

TRACTOR (fanfold paper)

MANUAL (for the Fanfold Printer optional)

ASF Cassettes (optional only for the Multi-purpose Printer), they either can be accessed
individually or pooled in a specified sequence. Any combination or cassettes can be
selected (for detail the chapter 5 ASF Cassettes).

A corrective factor for the vertical positioning of the paper can be applied to each paper source
and the Run-In-Sensor (see section VERT.POS.ADJ.).
Note:
Please refer to chapter 6, Technical Data, for detailed media specifications.

PAPER EXIT (only for single sheet paper)
Fanfold Printer:
the output will be done in the manual input path. It is possible to choose between FRONT/KEY
and FRONT if the manual front insertion guide is mounted.
Multi-purpose Printer:
it is possible to choose between STACKER, FRONT, and FRONT/KEY (manual front insertion).
The desired paper exit can be selected via operator panel or software.
If you choose the paper exit FRONT SIDE/KEY you have to confirm each output with a
keystroke
on. That is a useful option when using automatic sheet feeding which could cause
a paper jam. As opposed to feeding automatically the ASF will only feed after a keystroke has been
received.
Note:
A-12
Appendix A Configuration of the printer

EMULATION
The emulation determines the set of commands available for the printer (see Appendix D and E). You
can activate the following emulations:

IBM PROPR.

IBM PROPR.AGM

EPSON LQ / ESC/P2
The selected Emulation will also be stored in the actual macro. With a change of the macro
(e.g. Keys
,
,
or
is pressed) it is possible that the emulation will also be changed.
Be careful: Do not change the emulation within an application.
note:

Character Set
When selecting a character set it can be further specified by the corresponding national variants. The
main groups are: EPSON EXT.GCT, CODE PAGES EE and EE2, ISO 8859/xx, IBM SET 1, IBM SET 2, and
IBM CODE PAGES.
All Character Set Tables are listed in Appendix C.
If a different macro is selected the default character set may change, e.g.

IBM PROPR. emulation has the character set IBM SET 2 as default.

EPSON emulation has the character set EPSON EXT.GCT as default.

LINE MODE
Possible values are:
LF = LF, CR = CR
Line Feed will be executed after receiving a Line Feed by the interface.
Carriage Return will be executed after receiving
a Carriage Return by the interface.
LF = LF + CR
The printer performs a Line Feed and additional a Carriage Return for
every Line Feed received by the interface.
CR = LF + CR
The printer performs a Carriage Return and additional a Line Feed for
every Carriage Return received by the interface.
LF, CR = LF + CR
Line Feed and Carriage Return will be executed after receiving a Line Feed
or Carriage Return by the interface.
A-13
Appendix A Configuration of the printer
 $$-BEFEHLE
This function causes $$ either to be printed as $$ or to activate ESC commands within
an application.
If this function is set to YES the characters are interpreted by the printer in the following
way:
Bei der Einstellung JA werden die Zeichen
 $$
like ESC [
und die Zeichen
 $$/ like
ESC .
 Tear-off-mode (only for fanfold paper)
There are six possible settings within this mode:
 NO
 TEAR 10 S.
 TEAR 10 S..FF
 TEAR 1 S.
 TEAR 1 S. FF
 NO, SPECIAL
The NO SPECIAL setting is to be used with critical forms which cannot handle the return
movement of the paper.
With the YES setting the printer waits for one ore ten seconds and, unless further data
is received, moves the paper to the first perforation after the text.
Regardless of this setting, whenever changing from fanfold to the manual paper source,
the printer will request the fanfold paper to be torn off or at the setting NO SPECIAL
to be removed before the paper is moved to the park position.
A-14
Appendix A Configuration of the printer

PRE-SEPARATION (is used for the ASF cassettes at the Multi-purpose Printer only)
During normal printing, a sheet of paper is not inserted from an ASF cassette before the
preceding sheet has been ejected.
By selecting PRE-SEPARATION = YES the sheets follow each other more closely, thereby
increasing the printer's throughput
Main-Function INSTALLATION:
Sub-Function INTERFACE
 BUFFER
Buffer size in Kbyte. The maximum size is 176 Kbyte
 WORD LENGHT
Length of the data to be transferred; values are 7 or 8 bit
 I/F TYP Interface TYP)
the following types are available:
 PARALLEL

SERIAL


USB
Ethernet
In case the SHARED mode interface type is selected the printer switches automatically between
the parallel and serial interfaces. The first data received at the port determine which interface
port becomes active. The other interface port will be closed so that only one interface is active
at a time (for detailed information see Appendix B Interface Description).
To activate the USB port use following steps on the Printer:
 Select USB by setting the asterisk (*) and SAVE this setting.
 Power off and wait until the display and the yellow light on the Operator Panel will
be dark.
 Power on your Printer again and wait until the host recognized the printer (a short
sound). Now the Printer is ready to receive data from the host.
The factory setting for the interface type are: Shared, 8 Kbyte Buffer, 8 bit word
length, even parity bit, 9600 baud rates, and DTR protocol.
The printer drivers (see included CD-ROM) must be installed and configured
before.
Note:
A-15
Appendix A Configuration of the printer

BAUD RATE (Only indicated if the serial interface is selected)
Controls the speed of data transfer. The possible transfer rates are: 600, 1200, 2400, 4800,
9600 or 19200 bps.
 PARITY BIT (Only indicated if the serial interface is selected)
The data transfer will be checked by an even or odd parity bit. The values are: EVEN, ODD, or
NONE.
 PROTOCOL (Only indicated if the serial interface is selected)
Selectable are: DTR, XON/XOFF, or XON/XOFF + DTR.
Sub-Function ADJUSTMENT
 AGC POSITION
AGC (Automatic Gap Control) is an integral part of the paper handling capabilities of the printer.
It is an automatic adjustment function which ensures an optimal print quality when using
various paper thicknesses.
The gap adjustment will automatically take place whenever paper is inserted





after the paper source has been changed
from park position (fanfold)
after Power On
after the printer has been in the STOP mode
an AGC command has been issued.
The reference point for the measurement of the paper thickness is the AGC Position of the first
print line. Default for the horizontal AGC Position is 24 (= ink ribbon exchange position), any
position from 4 to 131 (at 10 cpi) can be selected.
An adjustment of the AGC Position is only necessary if a measurement at the default position
does not reflect the paper thickness of the area to be printed on or if there is a paper edge (e.g.
of a label) in that position (the measuring process requires a plain paper-surface).
In addition to the automatic AGC function, random measurements of the paper thickness can
be invoked by the AGC command, or a specific platen gap can be set using the PCC command.
This is to meet the requirements of forms with complex properties. For Details see the
Programmers Manual for the printer.
A-16
Appendix A Configuration of the printer

PLATEN GAP
This adjustment is to be seen as a correctional offset to the platen gap set by the AGC (Automatic
Gap Control) function or a PCC (Programmable Copy Control) command. It influences all paper
paths.
The offset is within the range of -3 to +4. One step is equal to 18 :m. "-" reduces the gap, "+"
increases it.

AGC ADJUST
This is a basic adjustment which is automatically performed at the initial Power On of the printer,
and which there after only needs to be initiated after having exchanged the print head or the
platen. It is essential that the ink ribbon is installed and no paper is in the printer when this
procedure is started. After activating this procedure, the printer displays
INSTALL RIBBON. If the ribbon is installed press
to continue

PAPIER-IN ADJ. (Paper-In-Sensor adjustment)
This parameter logically adjusts the base position of the Run-In-Sensor. The factory set value is
such that the default is set to compensate specific Mechanical tolerances. The adjustment range is
from -3 to +4 in (1/60“) Inch steps).
(0.42 mm), where "-" means an upward movement and "+" a downward movement. When
implemented, the adjustment applies to all paper paths

TEAROFF V-POS (vertikale Justage für die Abreißposition)
This parameter can be used to compensate mechanical tolerances which may cause a misalignment
between the perforation edge of a continuous form and the tear-off position as well as the cutting
position, in case the cutting option is installed.
If no cutting device is mounted the value of CUTTING V-POS will influence the TEAR-OFF Position.
The range within which variations can be met is - 15/60" bis + 360/60" the page and "+" is further
down the page.
The following table shows the possible values in inches and millimeters.
If, for some reason, it is not desired to cut exactly on the perforation, it is very important to
cut below the perforation of the printed page. If the paper is cut above the perforation the
remaining paper can easily bend and cause a paper jam. Do not cut through a label as the blade
would get dirty by the glue.


Uni-Direct.CMD (Unidirectional Command)
If NO is selected, commands for unidirectional printing will be ignored. The default setting of YES
means that commands will be carried out to switch from bidirectional to unidirectional or
reverse.

TRACT.FF-MODE (Tractor Form Feed Mode)
EXECUTE FF means, every Form Feed sent to the printer will be executed. If you set IGNORE
FF, only a Form Feed before printable characters will be executed, that means blank pages will
be ignored.

SELF TEST
This function can be some internal test printouts produce (see. Section 1.14 Test printouts). The
printer has three test printouts and an interface test available:

TEST 1
shows a pattern of all printable characters. Thus, the print quality as well as the upper and left
edges may be checked.

TEST 2
a standard DIN letter according to ECMA-132, with the printer's throughput is measured.

TEST 3
This test print provides information on the state of the art and is used only for service
purposes.

I/F Test (Serial Interface-Test)
In order to verify the serial port with this function, the test data output from the printer and
looped over a test plug into the serial interface port. The test data are the data of the test 3.

HEX DUMP
This function makes it possible to analyze the data received from by the printer.
Control codes are not executed, instead, all the data in hexadecimal format, will printed in ASCII
format. Non-displayable characters, such as CR, appear as a single dot (.) In the ASCII collection.
It may happen that the Hex Dump the transmission of data is interrupted to the printer. In this
case, the pressure after the break of the received data, begun on the next free line. An irregular
right margin is the result, but does not mean a loss of data.

Appendix B System Interface Description
B.3
Additional Information
After Power-ON DTR and RTS are activated and the printer is ready to receive data.
XOFF is sent, when the interface buffer has only space left for 256 more characters. XOFF is sent
again, at a level of 128 characters buffer space. Further incoming data will be stored until the
interface buffer is full. All data sent in addition will get lost.
XON is sent when the interface buffer provides space for a minimum of 512 characters.
XON/XOFF can only be sent successfully when CTS is at active state. When the CTS Mode is set
to "CTS ignore" CTS is always in the active state.
XOFF will be sent immediately if local mode is entered.
XON is sent again, if local mode is left and a minimum of 512 byte interface buffer is available.
Shared Operation
In shared operation the interface buffer capacity is reduced by 256 bytes.
After Power-ON both the serial and the parallel interfaces are available for data transfer.
If a byte is first recognized by the serial interface, the parallel interface is immediately disabled
by the BUSY signal. The serial interface is now active and will operate, using the installed
protocols.
If a byte is first recognized by the parallel interface either the DTR signal of the serial interface is
set to OFF or XOFF is sent, depending on the protocol.
B-4
If the serial interface starts to receive data while the parallel interface is active, it is possible to
receive 256 bytes of serial data. Any additional serial data will be lost.
When the interface buffer is completely empty of serial data, and no new data has been received
by the serial interface for more than 10 seconds, both interfaces are available for data transfer
again.
When the interface buffer is completely empty of parallel data and no data has been received by
the parallel interface for more than 60 seconds, the 256 bytes of serial data will be processed.
Afterwards, both interfaces are available for data transfer again.

Appendix D IBM ProPrinter 4207, 4208 XL 24 Quick Reference
Appendix D
IBM ProPrinter Quick Reference
This appendix contains basic information on the IBM ProPrinter 4207, 4208 XL 24 Emulation
commands supported in four Printer types:
Fanfold Printer
Multi-purpose Printer
High Speed Fanfold Printer
High Speed Fanfold Printer with Cutter
Some commands or parameters may be different for a specific Printer.
In those cases it will be indicated by the PINTER NAME as shown above, to which printer a command
D-1
Appendix D IBM ProPrinter 4207, 4208 XL 24 Quick Reference
or parameter applies.
Characters used in control functions appear in monospaced type. Table 1 explains some of the conventions
used.
A pair of numbers separated by a slash ( / ) character indicates Column/Row notation. This notation refers
to the location of a character in a standard code table, such as ASCII. (Example: 1/B = 1B is the hex-code for
Escape)
Spaces appear between characters in sequence for clarity; they are not part of the format.
At the end of this chapter you will find a listing of the IBM ProPrinter Emulation commands classified by Hex
Code and a Hex - Decimal conversion table.
The following conventions are used in the command listings:
Table 1 Conventions
ESC Escape (1/B), introduces an escape sequence
Pn
Numeric parameter, or number of units that specify a distance or quantity pertaining to the
escape sequence, control function or control string. Accepted values are 0...9999, may be
preceded by + or -. If the parameter is in normal notation like "200" the programming in hexcode is according to a ASCII table. ("200" = 32,30,30 in hex).
If the parameter must be programmed in hex-code the notation is with a slash. (1/A = 1A in
hex-code)
v1...vn A
series of parameters pertaining to the escape sequence, control function or control string.
SP
Is standing for Space (hex 20)

Appendix E
This appendix contains basic information on the EPSON LQ 2550 and ESC/P2 Printer Emulation
commands supported in four Printer types:
Fanfold Printer
Multi-purpose Printer
High Speed Fanfold Printer
High Speed Fanfold Printer with Cutter
D-1
Appendix D IBM ProPrinter 4207, 4208 XL 24 Quick Reference
In those cases it will be indicated by the PINTER NAME as shown above, to which printer a
command or parameter applies.
Characters used in control functions appear in monospaced type. Table 1 explains some of the
conventions used.
A pair of numbers separated by a slash ( / ) character indicates Column/Row notation. This notation
refers to the location of a character in a standard code table, such as ASCII. (Example: 1/B = 1B is the
hex-code for Escape)
Spaces appear between characters in sequence for clarity; they are not part of the format.
At the end of this chapter you will find a listing of the IBM ProPrinter Emulation commands classified by
Hex Code and a Hex - Decimal conversion table.
The following conventions are used in the command listings:
Table 1 Conventions
ESC Escape (1/B), introduces an escape sequence
Pn
Numeric parameter, or number of units that specify a distance or quantity pertaining to
the escape sequence, control function or control string. Accepted values are 0...9999, may
be preceded by + or -. If the parameter is in normal notation like "200" the programming
in hex- code is according to a ASCII table. ("200" = 32,30,30 in hex).
If the parameter must be programmed in hex-code the notation is with a slash. (1/A = 1A
in hex-code)
v1...vn A
series of parameters pertaining to the escape sequence, control function or control string.
SP
Is standing for Space (hex 20)

Bar Code Quick Reference
1.
Introduction
The bar code print facility is available in all three emulations.
2.
Programming
There are three escape sequences to print bar codes

The first sequence is to define the Bar Code Header. The type of bar code as well as all
parameters are selected by a header. The header does not affect any parameters outside
the bar code application and remains valid until another header is transmitted or the
printer is turned off. This can be done at any time but before bar code printing.
The header has the following format:
ESC [ ; P2 ; P3 ; P4 ; P5 ; P6 ; P7 8 z

Note: 8 = Space
In step two, the ESC-sequence "Set Mode Bar Code (SMBC)" starts the Bar Code printing.
ESC [ ? 0 h

Finally, the ESC-sequence "Reset Mode Bar Code (RMBC)" will stop printing.
ESC [ ? 0 l
Between SMBC and RMBC are only printable characters tolerated (no CR or LF).

3 uni-directional printing in NLQ 4 bi-directional printing in NLQ
Note: A switch from uni-directional to bi-directional printing is only possible if the parameter
UNI-DIRECT.CMD is set to YES via operator panel or
ESC-sequence.
Start Position of Bar Code Printing
The start position for bar code printing is the current print position.
For both horizontal and vertical printing, the print position after printing bar codes is the same
line as the start position next to the bar code printed.
F-4
Appendix F Bar Code Quick Reference
Bar Code Programming Examples
Note: All examples are coded in standard uni-directional printing - that means the parameter "P7" is
not used.
In the following examples the symbol 8 is standing for "Space".
The small square
before and after the printed bar code indicates the actual print position.
Between Start Bar Code and Stop Bar Code are only printable characters tolerated (no CR or LF).
