(1) The macro definition can be made by entering the character code or [LF] (Print

(2) From the start to end of the macro definition, must be a maximum of 253 bytes.
(3) The macro definition data is kept until the power is turned off.
(4) The number of digits indicated using “#” must match that for the macro to be

(5) Character code designated by the Macro Definition Command is sent to the printer
