Function
Set bar code height
ASCII
[GS] h <n>
Description
Set the bar code height in dot lines. The Series 90PLUS Printer prints bar
codes as graphics in 8-dot passes. The height used in EPOS is intended for
thermal printers. To allow some compatibility between EPOS and the Series
90PLUS Printer, the value of n is divided by 28. This allows a similar size
bar code to be printed.
Note
Values less than 28 return the printer to the default values defined by the
[ESC] [EM] B command in normal mode.
Function
Set bar code
ASCII
[GS] k <m> {information} [NUL]
Description
The Series 90PLUS Printer uses the same print functions to print EPOS bar
codes as the normal mode bar codes.
EPOS has two formats for bar codes. One is [NUL] terminated; the other
has a length field. If <m> is greater than 64, the next byte sets the length in
bytes. Only the [NUL] terminated command is supported by the Series
90PLUS Printer.
Where m:
0 UPC A
Numeric (0 - 9) only; 11 digits
1 UPC E
Numeric (0 - 9) only; 11 digits
2 EAN-13
Numeric (0 - 9) only; 12 digits
3 EAN-8
Numeric (0 - 9) only; 6 digits
4 Code 39
26 uppercase letters (A - Z); 10 digits
(0 - 9)
5 Interleaved 2 of 5 Numeric (0 - 9) only, must be even
number of digits
Note
If Code 128 is to be printed, it must be printed with the [ESC] b <n>
command as described on page 55.
Function
Real-time command
ASCII
[DLE] [ENQ] <n>
Description
The Series 90PLUS Printer only supports Commands 2 and 3. Both have the
same effect and reset the printer.
Unlike Epson, this command is filtered out of all other commands. If the
[DEL] [ENQ] <n> is part of some other command (like graphic data), it will
have no effect.
