DC2+”!”+n: Select print paper
HEX: 12+21+n
DEC: 18+33+n
Selects print paper.
n=0: P220AG ( Mitsubishi Seishi ) Usual paper mode
n=1: Copy Paper Mode*
n=2: PD160R ( Oji Seishi ) High sensitivity paper mode
n=3: forbidden
n=4: Label Paper Mode
・
when copy paper printing is set by this control code, normal print operation will
repeat 2 times overwriting.
・
When printing the label paper, send this command each time before sending the
printing data.
・
Default value is n=0.
*Thermal Copy paper
Thermal copy paper is made by attaching 2 kinds of thermal papers, putting low
sensitivity paper on the surface and high sensitivity paper on the reverse side. It is
possible to print 2 pieces at one time using this copy paper.
As the thermal copy paper is composed of two layers of thermal paper. So the print
control method is also different from the one of usual thermal paper.
<Cautions for Use>
It is required to treat thermal copy paper in some special way different from usual
one because of its characteristics. Please take care about the following points.
1. When the copy paper mode is set, as the driving pulse endurance lifetime.
As the driving pulse is applied 2 times on the head, the printing speed may become
slower 2 times or more than the one of usual thermal paper.
2. When you want to accelerate the print speed using copy paper, set usual paper
Mode and set the print density higher.
Example) Print paper selection: n =0 ( Usual paper mode )
Print density set: n=180-200 ( Usual copy paper )
・
When set by n=180, print speed will be 70-80% of the standard.
・
When set by n=200, print speed will be 60-70% of the standard.
