[Description]
Sets the character spacing for the right side of the character to [n x horizontal or vertical motion units].
[Notes]
• The right character spacing for double-width mode is twice the normal value. When the characters
are enlarged, the right side character spacing is m (2 or 8) times the normal value.
• The horizontal and vertical motion units are specified by 0x1D 0x50. Changing the horizontal or
vertical motion units does not affect the current right side spacing.
• The 0x1D 0x50 command can change the horizontal (and vertical) motion unit. However, the value
cannot be less than the minimum horizontal movement amount.
• The maximum right side character spacing is 32 mm.
• In standard mode, the horizontal motion unit is used.

• The printer can underline all characters, but cannot underline the spaces set by 0x09, 0x1B 0x24,
0x1B 0x5C and 90°/270° rotated characters.
• This command resets the left and right margin at default value (see 0x1D 0x4C, 0x1D 0x57).
• 0x1B 0x45 can also be used to turn the emphasized mode on/off. However, the last-received setting
command is the effective one.
• 0x1B 0x2D can also be used to turn the underlining mode on/off. However, the last-received setting

[Notes]
• The allowable character code range is from ASCII 0x20 (32) to 0x7E (126) (95 characters).
• It is possible to define multiple characters for consecutive character codes.
If only one character is desired, use c1 = c2.
• if c2 < c1, the command is not executed.
• d is the dot data for the characters. The dot pattern is in the horizontal direction starting from the
left. Any remaining dots on the right remain blank.
• The data to define a user-defined character is ( X × Y) bytes.
• To print a dot, set the corresponding bit to 1; to not have it print, set to 0.
• This command can define different user-defined character patterns for each font. To select the font,
use 0x1B 0x21.
• The user-defined character definitions are cleared when:
0x1B 0x40 or 0x1D 0x2A are executed or the printer is reset or the power shut off.

• The horizontal tab position is stored as a value of [character width x n] measured from the beginning
of the line. The character width includes the right-side character spacing and double-width characters
are set with twice the width of normal characters.
• This command cancels previous tab settings.
• When setting n = 8, the print position is moved to column 9 sending 0x09.
• Up to 32 tab positions ( k = 32) can be set. Data exceeding 32 tab positions is processed as normal
data.
• Send [ n ] k in ascending order and place a 0 NUL code at the end. When [ n ] k is less than or equal
to the preceding value [ n ] k-1, the setting is complete and the data which follows is processed as
normal data.
• 0x1B 0x44 0x00 cancels all horizontal tab positions.
• The previously specified horizontal tab position does not change, even if the character width is
modified.
Default tab positions are set at intervals of 8 characters (columns 9, 17, 25, …) for Font A when the
right-side character spacing is 0.

• The nL and nH commands indicate the number of dots of the bit image in the horizontal direction.
The number of dots is calculated using: nL + nH * 256.
• If the bit image data input exceeds the number of dots to be printed on a line, the excess data is
ignored.
• d indicates the bit image data. Set a corresponding bit to 1 to print a dot, or to 0 to not print the dot.
• If the value of m is outside the specified range, nL and data following it are processed as normal
data.
• If the width of the printing area set by 0x1D 0x4C and 0x1D 0x57 is less than the width required by
the data set using 0x1B 0x2A , the excess data are ignored.
• To print the bit image use 0x0A 0x0D, 0x1B 0x4A or 0x1B 0x64.
• After printing a bit image, the printer returns to normal data processing mode.
• This command is not affected by the emphasized, double-strike, underline (etc.) print modes, except
for the upside-down mode.

• If the downloaded bit-image to be printed exceeds the printable area, the excess data is not printed.
• If the printing area width set by 0x1D 0x4C and 0x1D 0x57 is less than the bit image horizontal size,
the following processing is performed:
1) The printing area width is extended toward the right side up to hold the bit image. In this case,
printing does not exceed the printable area.
2) If the printing area width cannot be extended toward the right side, because there’s no more printing area, the left margin is reduced to accommodate the bit image.

• If d is outside of the specified range, the printer prints the following message: “BARCODE GENERATOR IS NOT OK!” and processes the data which follows as normal data.
• If the horizontal size exceeds the printing area, the printer only feeds the paper.
• This command feeds as much paper as is required to print the barcode, regardless of the line spacing specified by 0x1B 0x32 or 0x1B 0x33.
• After printing the barcode, this command sets the print position to the beginning of the line.
• This command is not affected by print modes (emphasized, double-strike, underline or character
size), except for upside-down and justification mode.
Format 1:
• This command ends with a NUL code.
• When the barcode system used is UPC-A or UPC-E, the printer prints the barcode data after receiving 11 (without check digit) or 12 (with check digit) bytes barcode data.
• When the barcode system used is EAN13, the printer prints the barcode data after receiving 12
(without check digit) or 13 (with check digit) bytes barcode data.
• When the barcode system used is EAN8, the printer prints the barcode data after receiving 7 (without
check digit) or 8 (with check digit) bytes barcode data.
• The number of data for ITF barcode must be even numbers. When an odd number of data is input,
the printer ignores the last received data.
Format 2:
• If n is outside of the specified range, the printer stops command processing and processes the following data as normal data.
When CODE93 is used the printer:
• prints an HRI character (o) as a start character at the beginning of the HRI character string
• prints an HRI character (o) as a stop character at the end of the HRI character string.
• The printer prints an HRI character (n) as a control character (00H to 1FH and 7FH).
82 │ ESC/POS™ emulation
When CODE128 is used:
• When using CODE128 in this printer, please note the following regarding data transmission:
• The top part of the barcode data string must be a code set selection character (CODE A, CODE B
or CODE C) which selects the first code set.
• Special characters are defined by combining two characters “{“ and one character. ASCII character
“{” is defined by transmitting “{“ twice, consecutively.

all definitions.
• Macros are not defined when power is turned on to the machine.
• Macro content is not cancelled by the 0x1B 0x40 command. Therefore, 0x1B 0x40 may be included
in the content of macro definitions.
• If the printer receives 0x1D 0x3A a second time after previously receiving 0x1D 0x3A, the printer
remains in macro undefined status.
• The contents of the macro can be defined up to 2048 bytes. If the macro definition exceeds 2048

[Description]
Executes a macro.
• r specifies the number of times to execute the macro.
• t specifies the waiting time for executing the macro.
The waiting time is t × 100 msec. for each macro execution.
• m specifies macro executing mode:
When the LSB of m = 0, the macro is executed r times continuously at the interval specified by t.
When the LSB of m = 1, after waiting for the period specifi ed by t, the LED indicator blinks and the
printer waits for the FEED button to be pressed. After the button is pressed, the printer executes the
macro once. The printer repeats the operation r times.
[Notes]
• This command has an interval of (t × 100 msec.) after a macro is executed by t.
• If this command is received while a macro is being defined, the macro definition is aborted and the
definition is cleared.
• If the macro is not defined or if r is 0, nothing is executed.
• When the macro is executed by pressing the FEED button (m=1), the paper cannot be fed using
the FEED button.

xL + xH × 256 specifies the starting dotline (1 ÷ 682).
yL + yH × 256 specifies the number of lines to print.
• If (xL + (xH × 256)) > 682 the printer does not execute the command.
• If ( xL + ( xH × 256 ) + yL +( yH × 256 ))> 682 the printer prints only 682 - xL + ( xH × 256 ) +1 dotline.

[Description]
Receives [nL + (nH × 256)] words from the port and puts them into the ram bank.
[Notes]
• The number of data bytes received is [nL + (nH × 256)] × 2.
• Each word is first received as MSByte and then as LSByte.
• If [nL + (nH × 256)] is greater than 32768, the data which follows is processed as normal data.
•The flash bank dimensions for the graphic print are 384 horizontal dots (48 bytes/dot line) × 682
verticals dots (33280 bytes).

Decimal
[Range]
0 ≤ nL, nH ≤ 255
[Description]
Sets the horizontal and vertical motion units to 1/x inch and 1/y inch respectively.
When x is set to 0, the default setting value is used.
When y is set to 0, the default setting value is used.
[Notes]
• The horizontal direction is perpendicular to the paper feed direction.
• In standard mode, the following commands use x or y, regardless of character rotation (upside-down
or 90° clockwise rotation):
Commands using x: 0x1B 0x20, 0x1B 0x24, 0x1B 0x5C, 0x1D 0x4C, 0x1D 0x57
Commands using y: 0x1B 0x33, 0x1B 0x4A
• This command does not affect the previously specified values.
• The calculated result from combining this command with others is truncated to the minimum value
of the mechanical pitch or an exact multiple of that value.
[Default]
x = 204, y = 408
