REMARKS
This command defines ruled line format.
n1n2
: Line number(00 to 63)
x1x2x3x4 : Position of the starting point in the X direction (0000
to 0800
×
0.1 mm)
y1y2y3y4 : Position of the starting point in the Y direction (0000
to 0300
×
0.1 mm)
x5x6x7x8 : Position of the ending point in the X direction (0000
to 0800
×
0.1 mm)
y5y6y7y8 : Position of the ending point in the Y direction (0000
to 0300
×
0.1 mm)
These four parameters work in 1/10 mm unit, and should be given
with four digit numbers.
d : Line direction d=0 : Horizontal line
d=1 : Vertical line
When d=0, then y1y2y3y4 = y5y6y7y8. When d=1,
then x1x2x3x4 = x5x6x7x8.
w : Line width 1 to 9 dots
Note: a) This command is used to define lines for label fram-
ing.
b) Up to 64 lines can be defined.
c) Lines must be vertical or horizontal (no diagonal
line).
d) The width of one dot is about 0.125 mm, and so four
dots make 0.5 mm width.
