Escape-sequences
What is an escape-sequence?
An escape-sequence is the name for a code which is sent to the printer from the computer to change
the parameters which control the way the printer works. All parameters that can be set via the opera-
tor panel, can also be changed with escape-sequences.
This makes it possible to have different codes (read; escape-sequences) stored in a document.
So, when the document is sent to the printer, these codes are sent first and the printer sets itself in
the correct mode and format automatically.
Note! When the printer receives an escape-sequence, it will have first priority. This means, re
-
gardless of the setting made before and regardless what the operator panel dictates, the most
recent escape-sequence will take precedence.
Note! Escape-sequences should be placed at the very beginning of the first page on the sheet,
(e.g. page 1, 3, 5, 7 ...). However, a software form feed can be placed wherever needed. (If
there is a command on the other pages, it will be skipped).
All page formatting which is done on the front page will also format the back of the same sheet. It is
for example not possible to have 8 dot Braille on the front page and 6 dot on the back page. It is pos-
sible to mix 6 and 8 dot Braille however, as long as it is done on two different sheets.
