Application Development Information
This section contains usable information to develop POS systems that use this printer.
4.1 About wireless communication
4.1.1 For Application developing
The TM-P60 with Peeler uses wireless comunication technology; therefore temporary
communication breaks may occur when you move or are in an outside environment. When you
develop application software using wireless communication, you should consider this.
We recommend you confirm whether or not the printer printed after every print data
transmission unit. Detection of communication errors and recovering from such errors are also
important. Data communication without confirmation of printing and detetection of
communication errors may cause data loss.
To ensure heighly reliable data communication, we recommend the use of the status
confirmation function of our genuine OPOS, or Windows Printer Driver (APD).
4.1.2 For Radio field intensity
Wireless communication is related to radio field intensity. The TM-P60 with Peeler has a
function,“Radio Field Intensity Check Mode” (page 3-5), to confirm the current radio field
intensity. This mode shows the current radio field intensity to the operator.
The function can’t be executed from any drivers (OPOS, Advanced Printer Driver) or ESC/POS
commands.
