Standard Emulation
The standard control codes for the Ithaca
®
8000 Printer are extensions and subsets of
the PcOS IBM emulation provided on other Ithaca
®
products. In some cases, an
application designed for a Series 50 Printer with IBM code sets will function with a
Ithaca
®
8000 Printer.
IPCL Codes
Ithaca
®
Printer Control Language (IPCL) codes are part of PcOS and designed to control
a printer without using control characters (i.e. characters less than 20H). Only the
standard PcOS emulation supports IPCL.
In rare cases, an IPCL code will interfere with the text that is to be printed. The IPCL
translator can be disabled with an [ESC] y <4> command.
EPOS Emulation
ESC/POS
4
is referred to here as EPOS. The Ithaca
®
8000 Printer supports two Epson
emulations. One emulation is for the TM-T88, and the other is an enhanced TM-T90
emulation.
Specific EPSON compatibility features, such as its Automated Status Back
(ASB) feature, are available as an option from TransAct Technologies.
Command codes pertaining to these features are documented as
―licensed‖ within the command description.
It is intended that the standard Ithaca
®
PcOS emulation be used for new
applications. Not all features of Ithaca
®
8000 Printers are supported by EPOS
–
specifically, the ability to print color horizontal graphics is not supported.
Axiohm
The printer contains an Axiohm A793 emulation that will allow the printer to replace an
Axiohm thermal print in most applications. Note that the Ithaca® 8000 does not support
the printer configuration commands provided in the A793 Printer. The Ithaca® 8000
should be configured through the keypad or with the TransAct configuration program.
Ithaca
®
Microline Emulation
The Ithaca
®
8000 printer supports several Microline emulations. These emulations allow
the Ithaca
®
8000 Printer to replace some older Ithaca
®
M50 printers with Microline
commands. This emulation is not documented here. Refer to our Microline Emulation
Programmer‘s Guide (12-03244) for more information.
Application Development
To aid application development, several chapters in this manual are designed to help the
programmer understand the Ithaca
®
8000 Printer. The next chapter provides a detailed
description of each of the commands. Subsequent chapters provide explanations of
