EPC1800 SERIES OPERATION MANUAL
double-height mode (
m
=31H), and it means 2 dots in double-width mode (
m
=32H)
and in quadruple mode (
m
=33H).
●
If the printing area width cannot be extended by one line vertically, the left margin is
reduced to accommodate one line vertically.
●
The printing area width is extended to the right in NV bit image mode up to one line
vertically. In this case, printing does not exceed the printable area.
●
If the downloaded bit-image to be printed exceeds one line, the excess data is not
printed.
●
After printing the bit image, this command sets the print position to the beginning of
the line and processes the data that follows as normal data.

[Notes]
●
The maximum amount of loading logos is 255 but limited to the 16KB memory
capacity.
●
From the beginning of the processing of this command till the finish, mechanical
operations (including initializing the position of the printer head when the cover is
open, paper feeding by using the FEED button, etc.) cannot be performed.
●
NV bit image means a bit image which is defined in a non-volatile memory by
FS q
and printed by
FS p
.
●
This command is effective only when processed at the beginning of the line.
●
This command is effective when 7 bytes <FS
∼
yH
> is processed as a normal value.
●
When the amount of data exceeds the capacity left in the range defined by
xL
,
xH
,
yL
,
yH
, the printer processes
xL
,
xH
,
yL
,
yH
out of the defined range.
●
The
d
indicates the definition data. In data (
d
) a 1 bit specifies a dot to be printed and
a 0 bit specifies a dot not to be printed.
●
The definition area in this printer is a maximum of 16KB.
●
Once a NV bit image is defined, it is not erased by performing
ESC @
, reset or
power off.
●
This command performs only definition of a NV bit image and does not perform
printing. Printing of the NV bit image is performed by the
FS p
command.

IMPORTANT NOTE: FENIX provides a powerful utility to the Windows driver, that makes logo
load extremely easy and useful. Taking advantage of high features in drawing and image handle
software like Word, Paint, Photoshop, etc. the user can load a logo, selecting in “Device operation”
(EPC1800 Windows driver) the correct option.
We suggest adjusting the logo selecting “Driver mode” option until get the size, the layout and the
arrangement desired. Afterwards, the user just have to reprint with the option “Load Logo 1” selected,
and the logo will be stored same way that last printing.
