ESC t +n
1B 74 +n
n = 0, code page 437 (standard USA).
n = 2, Code page 850 (Multilingual).
n = 3, Code page 860 (Portuguese).
n = 4, Code page 863 (Canadian-French).

Form
GS FF
1D 0C
If TOF mode is disabled (DIP switch 2 position
1 or ESC c 1 +n) then paper is fed until the
trailing edge of the Black Mark sensor is
detected, the current page length is reached, or
the printer runs out of paper.
Select character
size
GS !
1D 21 +n
Bits 7,6,5,4 for width, Bits 3,2,1,0 for height.
Can select 1,2,4, or 8 times normal size. 0hex =
1X size, 1hex = 2X size, 2hex = 4X size, and
3hex = 8X size.
Reverse video
GS B +n
1D 42 +n
Bit 0 of n = 1 causes Reverse Video to be
printed (same as ESC RS). Bit 0 of n = 0 turns
Reverse Video off (same as ESC US).
HRI position
GS H +n
1D 48 +n
Select HRI printing position for bar codes, n =
00hex no HRI printed. n = any value other
than 00hex, HRI printed below the bar code.
Set left margin
GS L +nH +nL
1D 4C +nH
+nL
Sets the left margin to nH*256 + nL dot
positions from the left side of the print head.
Default = 0 (leftmost dot). The value being set
must be equal to or less than the right margin
minus 80 dots. If the margin is set to any invalid
value this command is ignore. Range = 0 to
Right Margin - 80.
Paper cut
GS V
+n
+m
1D 56
+n
+m
If n = 0 (either 00hex or 30hex) a full cut is
performed and the +m byte is not needed. If
n
=
1 (either 01hex or 31hex) a partial cut is
performed and the +m byte is not needed. If n
is a capital A (41hex) then paper is fed for m
dot lines and then a full cut is performed. If n is
a capital B (42hex) then paper is fed for m dot
lines and then a partial cut is performed. If a
presenter is installed, only full cuts are
performed.
