2 OPERATION
2.1 IMPORTANT INFORMATION FOR OPERATION
•
It is recommended to program 8 dot lines FEED prior to each printing job in order to assure proper start of the
printer mechanism.
•
When changing running direction, the printer automatically compensates the back lash. Nevertheless little posi-
tioning errors are possible.
•
Changes in printing speed can lead to print quality losses (e.g. through discontinuous data stream).
•
Thermal printers are not useable for continuous operation without breaks, in generally. Please inquire for exist-
ing limitations concerning your printer system.
•
Not every setting combination of current consumption and print dynamics will result in good printing quality.
•
Avoid printing continuous lines. Under some circumstances the printer mechanism could stick together.
•
Increasing the default print density will result in reduction of printer head life time.
•
Never activate the printer driver at the end of a print job. Data may be lost.
2.2 PRINTER OPERATION MODES
The printer contains of 2 basic operation modes:
1.
GeBE Line Mode (compatible to GeBE A8 syntax)
In line printer mode each printer action will be performed immediately. A „hello world“ followed by carriage return
prints „hello world“ with a line feed.
2.
GeBE Forms Mode
In forms mode a command „start of ticket“ sends all forms data to the printer. In the printer memory all forms
data will be collected and built up as a page. Finally a command „end of ticket“ initiates the printout.
System commands are active in all operation modes and emulations.
