TS2000 PRINTERS OPERATION MANUAL
[Notes]
●
n
indicates the number of bar code data bytes, and the printer processes
n
bytes
from the next character data as bar code data.
● If
n
is outside the specified range, the printer stops command processing and
processes the following data as normal data.
● If
d
is outside the specified range, the printer only feeds paper and processes the
following data as normal data.
●
If the horizontal size exceeds printing area, the printer only feeds the paper.
●
This command feeds as much paper as is required to print the bar code, regardless
of the line spacing specified by
ESC 2
or
ESC 3
.
●
This command is enabled only when no data exists in the print buffer. When data
exists in the print buffer, the printer processes the data following
m
as normal data.
●
After printing the bar code, this command sets the print position to the beginning of
the line.
●
This command is not affected by print modes.
●
The number of data for the ITF bar code must be even numbers. When an odd
number of bytes of data is input, the printer ignores the last received data.
●
When Code128 (
m
=49h) is used:
1. When using Code128 in this printer, take the following points into account
for data transmission:
The top of the bar code data string must be the 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. The ASCII character “
{
“ is defined by transmitting “
{
“
twice consecutively.

[Example]
Example data for printing “Ref. 258710”
In this example, the printer first prints “No.” Using CODE B, then prints the following
numbers using CODE C.

printer stops command processing and processes the following data as
normal data.
