CHAPTER 6 LABEL MODE (INTERFACE COMMANDS)
B-EP
Series
6-56
Explanation (1) When the printer receives this command, the following operations will be
performed.
c
The printer clears the drawing buffer.
d
The printer links the form to the data.
e
The printer draws the data in the drawing buffer.
f
The printer draws the data if invocation of graphics is set in the form.
g
The printer sets the fine adjustment values for print density/position stored in
the form.
h
The printer starts printing
(2) Data is indicated in JIS8 code or packed BCD code. The type of data code is set
by the Bit Map Font Field Command, the Outline Font Field Command, or the
Barcode/Two-dimensional Code Format Command.
(3) When the length and the data code set by the Bit Map Font Field Command, the
Outline Font Field Command, or the Barcode/Two-dimensional Code Format
Command is “00” and JIS8 code, respectively, the delimiter [LF] (0AH) should be
entered at the end of the field data. When the packed BCD is used as the data
code, the delimiter “F” (4 bits) should be entered at the end of the field data.
When the data length stored in the form is anything other than “00”, a delimiter
such as [LF] or “F” should not be attached, since the length of the data is linked.
(4) If the length of the data corresponding to one field (including a delimiter) is an odd
number of digits when the packed BCD code is used, the last 4 bits of the final data
in the field should be “0”.
(5) When there is data which does not match the type of barcode/two-dimensional
code in the data string for the barcode/two-dimensional code, the barcode/two-
dimensional code is not drawn. When the barcode/two-dimensional code digit is
fixed, and the type of barcode/two-dimensional code does not match the number of
the data digit, the barcode/two-dimensional code is not drawn.
(6) If an error occurs while printing two or more labels, the printer discards the
remaining received data and waits for a command, after the error is cleared by
pressing the PAUSE key.
(7) If the form which corresponds to the form No. designated is not stored, a syntax
error occurs.
(8) When the form No. is other than 01H to 14H, the Data Print Command is
discarded.
(9) When the number of labels to be printed is other than 01H to FFH, a syntax error
occurs.
(10) If the battery capacity becomes low while printing two or more labels, the printer
may stop after issuing every label (for Max. 7 seconds).
