Preface
About this Manual
This manual covers the printer in combination with an interface module (Perso-
nality Module).
The Personality Module (PM) is an integral part of the printer, and the type of PM
used significantly influences the behaviour or operation of the printer.
The structure of this manual is such that the operator is led step-by-step through
the various procedures. It starts with the unpacking and setting-up, moves on to
detailed instructions for operating the printer and ends with the mounting of
options.
The manual is divided into the following chapters:
1.

Vordrucke Ihres Unternehmens den folgenden Normen entsprechen:
DIN 676 Geschäftsbrief; Vordrucke A4
DIN 677 -; Vordruck A5
DIN 679 Geschäftspostkarte; Vordrucke A6
DIN 4991 Vordrucke im Lieferantenverkehr; Rechnung
DIN 4992 -; Bestellung (Auftrag)
DIN 4993 -; Bestellungsannahme (Auftragsbestätigung)
DIN 4994 -; Lieferschein/Lieferanzeige

3. Configuring the Printer
3.1
What is Configuring
This chapter describes how to use the operator panel and menu settings to set
up or configure your printer so that the printer and your computer system can
communicate correctly with each other.
Communication between the two requires that both the computer operating sy-
stem and the printer have the same communication settings or features. The
most important of those are:
S
S
S
S
S
protocol,
baud rate,
word length,
I/F type,
parity.
You may also need to change some of the printer's other features depending on
your hardware and application requirements, for example:
S
paper handling
S text processing.
The MENU mode allows you to access the configuration memory. All settings of
the printer are stored in this memory and can be printed. The possible settings
are discribed in detail on the following pages. A short view of all Menu settings
you will find in chapter 3.5 Menu Item Description, and a detail descriotion in
chapter 4 Explanation of Individual Menu Items.
The standard pameter setting can be printed by using the function PRINT
MENU. The following steps show which keys to use to start this printout.

CONFIGURATION
This test printout lists all available fonts, contains the page count to identify
the actual number of printed pages, and gives information on technical
releases which are intended for service purposes. A sample you will find in
chapter 1.9 PRINT MENU.
PRINT LETTER
This test printout produces a standard letter (ECMA-132) which can be used
for measuring the printer's throughput. See a sample in chapter 1.9 PRINT
MENU.
S
S
PRINT LINES
Tis test printout shows a pattern of all printable characters. Use this to check
if the printer operates correctly. See a sample in chapter 1.9 PRINT MENU.
HEX DUMP
This function allows to analyze that the data received by the printer. Control
codes are no longer carried out, instead all data is printed in hexadecimal
format and as ASCII characters. Any non-printable characters, such as
carriage return are only represented as a single dot (.) in the ASCII list.
It may happen that the transmission of data to the printer will be interrupted
during Hex Dump. In this case, printing of data received after the break is
started on the next available line. The result is an irregular right margin which
is not an indicator for any loss of data.

PAGE LENGTH
Page length is expressed in terms of lines within the range of 1 to 144 lines.
Any page length setting is based on six lines per inch, regardless of the
number of lines per inch selected in the line setting or defined by the

LEFT MARGIN
The left margin is set in 1/10" steps, depending on the actual selection. The
first left margin position is 1/20" from the left edge of the paper which means
that the letter H in regular "Data" font would be positioned 1/20" from the left
edge of the paper. The left margin can be set to a maximum of 16/10".
S
S
RIGHT MARGIN
The right margin is set to print position 80, 132, 136, or 165, always
measured from the position of the first possible, not actual, left margin
setting.

PERF. SKIP
If PERF. SKIP is set to YES the printer starts to print after the specified top
margin and stops printing before the bottom margin.
If PERF. SKIP is set to NO the printer ignores top and bottom margin and
prints from the very first to the very last line. That means that on a standard
11" paper 66 lines are available for printing.
S
TEAR-OFF-MODE
There are three possible settings within this mode:
S
S
S
NO
TEAR-OFF 10 S.
TEAR-OFF 1 S.
When TEAR-OFF is selected the printer waits for one or ten seconds and,
unless further data are received, advances the paper to the first perforation
behind the text.
Regardless of this setting, whenever a change from fanfold to another paper
source occurs the printer will request the fanfold paper to be torn off before
the paper is moved into the park position.

Appendix A System Interface Description
There are two system interfaces:
S one serial interface with RS-232C or RS-422 support
S one Parallel Centronics interface.
The interfaces can be operated in three different modes:
S parallel interface active
S parallel interface active in shared mode with serial RS-232C
S parallel interface active in shared mode with serial RS-422
The following chapter gives an overview about interface characteristics, control
signals, protocols, and cabling.
Any change to the operation mode (PARALLEL, PARALL. / RS232, or
PARALL. / RS422) and to the size of the interface buffer is only possible when
the interface buffer is completely empty of data.

The READY / BUSY DTR protocol uses the DATA TERMINAL READY
(DTR) line to control the transmission of data from the host to prevent a
buffer overflow.
Note: Printer DTR may be connected to host DSR + CTS or only to host DSR
and a bridge between RTS and CTS.

Additional Information
After Power-ON DTR is activated and the printer is ready to receive data.
DTR is deactivated when the interface buffer has only space left for 256 more
characters. Further incoming data will be stored until the interface buffer is full.
All data sent in addition will get lost. DTR is activated again if there is a free
interface buffer space of 512 characters.
DTR is immediately deactivated, if local mode is entered.
It is activated again, if local mode is left and a minimum of 512 bytes interface
buffer is available.

Additional Information to XON / XOFF
After Power-ON DTR and RTS are activated and the printer is ready to receive
data.
XOFF is sent, when the interface buffer has only space left for 256 more charac-
ters. XOFF is sent again, at a level of 128 characters buffer space. Further
incoming data will be stored until the interface buffer is full. All data sent in
addition will get lost.
XON is sent when the interface buffer provides space for a minimum of 512
characters.
XON/XOFF can only be sent successfully when CTS is at active state.
When the CTS Mode is set to "CTS ignore" CTS is allways in the active state.
XOFF will be sent immediately if local mode is entered.
XON is sent again, if local mode is left and a minimum of 512 byte interface
buffer is available.

When the interface buffer is full except for the last character, BUSY will not be
reset. BUSY will be reset when buffer space is available again for least 512
characters in the interface buffer. While the printer is offline (Stop Mode), or
BUSY remains active until the printer enters the online state again.
IEEE Std 1284 Nibble mode including Device ID are supported.
The maximum throughput for data transfer is 42,000 characters per second.

Appendix A System Interface Description
2.2
Transmission Protocol Description
After Power-ON the PE (Paper Empty) signal is set to low level and the SELECT
and F¯A¯U¯L¯T¯signals are set to high level.
The printer is now ON-LINE and ready to receive data.
Timing
The host sets a print/control character to the 8 data lines.
After a time delay of a minimum of 0.5 µs, the host sends a S¯T¯R¯O¯B¯E¯ pulse of a
minimum of 0.5 µs. When the data byte is accepted into the interface buffer the
printer transmits a BUSY signal and an ¯A¯C¯K¯N pulse.
The ¯A¯C¯K¯N pulse informs the host that the data has been received and that the
printer is ready to receive new data.
If the interface buffer is full except for the last character the BUSY is not reset in
order to stop the data transfer from the host. The BUSY signal is only reset if
space is available in the interface buffer for a minimum of 512 characters.
While the printer is offline, or a serial interface is active BUSY remains high and
no ¯A¯C¯K¯N is sent until the printer enters online state or the serial interface is
deselected.

Shared Operation
In shared operation the interface buffer capacity is reduced by 256 bytes.
After Power-ON both the serial and the parallel interfaces are available for data
transfer.
If a byte is first recognized by the serial interface the parallel interface is imme-
diately disabled by the BUSY signal. The serial interface is now active and will
operate, using the installed protocols.
If a byte is first recognized by the parallel interface either the DTR signal of the
serial interface is set to OFF or XOFF is sent, depending on the protocol.
If the serial interface starts to receive data while the parallel interface is active, it
is possible to receive 256 bytes of serial data. Any additional serial data will be
lost.
When the interface buffer is completely empty of serial data, and no new data
has been received by the serial interface for more than 10 seconds, both
interfaces are available for data transfer again.
When the interface buffer is completely empty of parallel data and no data has
been received by the parallel interface for more than 60 seconds, the 256 bytes
of serial data will be processed. Afterwards, both interfaces are available for
data transfer again.

Appendix D IBM ProPrinter Quick Reference
This appendix contains basic information on the IBM ProPrinter XL 24 Emulation
commands supported in the Printer:
Characters used in control functions appear in monospaced type. Table 1
explains some of the conventions used.
A pair of numbers separated by a slash ( / ) character indicates Column/Row
notation. This notation refers to the location of a character in a standard code
table, such as ASCII. (example: 1/B = 1B is the hex-code for Escape)
Spaces appear between characters in sequence for clarity; they are not part of
the format.
At the end of this chapter you will find a listing of the IBM ProPrinter Emulation
commands classified by Hex Code and a Hex - Decimal conversion table.
The following conventions are used in the command listings:
Table 1 Conventions
ESC
Pn
Escape (1/B), introduces an escape sequence
Numeric parameter, or number of units that specify a distance or
quantity pertaining to the escape sequence, control function or control
string. Accepted values are 0...9999, may be preceded by + or -.
If the parameter is in normal notation like "200" the programming in hex-
code is according to a ASCII table. ("200" = 32,30,30 in hex).
If the parameter must be programmed in hex-code the notation is with a
slash. (1/A = 1A in hex-code)
v1...vn A series of parameters pertaining to the escape sequence, control
function or control string.
SP
Is standing for Space (hex 20)

Appendix E EPSON LQ 2550 and ESC/P2 Quick Reference
This appendix contains basic information on the EPSON LQ 2550 and ESC/P2
Printer Emulation:
Characters used in control functions appear in monospaced type. Table 1
explains some of the conventions used.
A pair of numbers separated by a slash ( / ) character indicates Column/Row
notation. This notation refers to the location of a character in a standard code
table, such as ASCII. (example: 1/B = 1B is the hex-code for Escape)
Spaces appear between characters in sequence for clarity; they are not part of
the format.
At the end of this chapter you will find a listing of the EPSON LQ 2550 and
ESC/P2 Emulation commands classified by Hex Code and a Hex - Decimal
conversion table.
The following conventions are used in the command listings:
Table 1 Conventions
ESC
P1
Escape (1/B), introduces an escape sequence
Numeric parameter, or number of units that specify a distance or
quantity pertaining to the escape sequence, control function or control
string. Accepted values are 0...9999, may be preceded by + or -.
If the parameter is in normal notation like "200" the programming in hex-
code is according to a ASCII table. ("200" = 32,30,30 in hex).
If the parameter must be programmed in hex-code the notation is with a
slash. (1/A = 1A in hex-code)
v1...vn A series of parameters pertaining to the escape sequence, control
function or control string.
SP
Is standing for Space (hex 20)

Vertical Form Handling
The printer is always equipped with two continuous form tractors. The last sheet
of a continuous form stack can be printed on up to the end of the form.
The capabillity of the printer to feed paper from different sources is optimally
supplemented by the option that automatically adjust the distance between the
print head and the print bar.

Appendix F Barcode Quick Reference
1. Introduction
The barcode print facility is available in all three emulations.
2. Programming
There are three escape sequences to print barcodes
- The first sequence is to define the Barcode Header. The type of barcode as
well as all parameters are selected by a header. The header does not affect
any parameters outside the barcode application and remains valid until
another header is transmitted or the printer is turned off. This can be done at
any time but before barcode printing.
The header has the following format:
ESC [ ; P2 ; P3 ; P4 ; P5 ; P6 ; P7 8 z
Note: 8 = Space
- In step two, the ESC-sequence "Set Mode Barcode (SMBC)" starts the
barcode printing.
ESC [ ? 0 h
- Finally, the ESC-sequence "Reset Mode Barcode (RMBC)" will stop printing.
ESC [ ? 0 l
Note: Between SMBC and RMBC are only printable characters tolerated (no CR
or LF).
