GS ( E pl ph fn [parameter] Customize NV memory area. Customize the NV user memory area. The table below explains the functions available in this command. Executes commands related to the user setting mode by specifying the function code fn. fn Format No. Function 1 GS ( E pl ph fn d1 d2 1 Changes into the user setting mode. 2 GS ( E pl ph fn d1 d2 d3 2 Ends the user setting mode session. (Performs a soft reset.) 3 GS ( E pl ph fn [a1 b18...b11]...

[Notes] pl, ph specifies (pl + ph x 256) as the number of bytes after ph (fn and [parameter]). The user setting mode is a special mode to change the values in the NV user memory with this command. In Function 2, the printer performs software reset. Therefore, the printer clears the receive and print buffers, and resets all settings (user-defined characters, macros, and the character style) to the mode in effect at power on. Frequent write commands by this command, may damage the NV memory. Therefore, it is recommended to write to NV memory no more than 10 times a day. While processing this command, the printer is BUSY while writing data to the user NV memory and stops receiving data. Therefore it is prohibited to transmit data including the real-time commands during the execution of this command. Rev. 1.03-24 -

[Notes] For PDF417 symbol data (when cn=48) The symbol data specified by Function 080 d1...dk is stored in the printer and is printed by the specification of Function 081. The symbol data in the save area is reserved until the following processing is performed : - Function 080 is executed - ESC @ is executed - The printer is reset or the power is turned off When processing Function 081 or 082, the setting values of Functions 065 to 070 are used. If the printable area is not large enough, the symbol may not be printed. Executing Function 081 after executing Function 080 repeatedly prints the same symbol data. By using Functions 065 to 070 combined with Function 081, the same symbol data d1...dk is printed differently. By using Function 082, the symbol size printed by Function 081 is available.

Data stored in the symbol save area by this function are processed by Function 081 and 082. The data in the symbol save area are reserved after processing Function 081 or 082. k bytes of d1...dk are processed as symbol data. Specify only the data code word of the symbol with this function. Be sure not to included the following data in the data d1...dk because they are added automatically by the printer. - Start pattern and stop pattern. - Indicator code word of left and right. - The descriptor of symbol length. (the first code word in the data area) - The error correction code word calculated by modulus 929. Setting of this function are effective until the following processing is performed : - Function 080 or 180 is executed. - ESC @ is executed. - The printer is reset or the power is turned off. <Function 081> GS ( k pl ph cn fn m (fn=81) [Notes] ASCII GS ( k pl ph cn fn m Hex 1D 28 6B 03 00 30 51 m Decimal 29 40 107 3 0 48 81 m (pl + ph x 256) = 3 (pl=3, ph=0) cn=48 fn=81 m=48 Encodes and prints the PDF417 symbol data in the symbol save area. In standard mode, use this function when printer is at the beginning of a line, or there is no data in the printer buffer. A symbol that size exceeds the printing area cannot be printed. If there is any error described below in the data of the symbol save area, it cannot be printed. - There is no data (Function 080 is not processed). - If [(number of columns x number of rows) < number of code word] when auto processing is specified for number of columns and number of rows. - Number of code word exceeds 928 in the data area.

The following data are added automatically by the encode processing. - Start pattern and stop pattern. - Indicator code word of left and right. - The descriptor of symbol length. (the first code word in the data area) - The error correction code word calculated by modulus 929. - Pad codeword. The data area includes the following code words. - Data specified by Function 080. - The descriptor of symbol length. (the first code word in the data area) - The error correction code word calculated by modulus 929. - Pad codeword. When auto processing (Function 065) is specified, the number of columns is calculated by the current printing area, module width (Function 067), option setting (Function 070), and the code word in the data area. Maximum number of the columns in 30. When auto processing (Function 066) is specified in page mode, the number of rows is calculated by the current printing area, module height (Function 068), and the code word in the data area. The maximum number of rows is 90. Printing of symbol is not affected by print mode (emphasized, doublestrike, underline, white/black reverse printing, or 90 clockwise-rotated), except for character size and upside-down printing mode. In standard mode, this command executes paper feeding for the amount needed for printing the symbol, regardless of the paper feed amount set by the paper feed setting command. The printing position returns to the left side of the printable area after printing the symbol, and printer is in the status beginning of the line, or there is no data in the print buffer. In page mode, the printer stores the symbol data in the print buffer without executing actual printing. The printer moves printing position to the next dot of the last data of the symbol. The quiet zone is not included in the printing data. Be sure to include the quiet zone when using this function. Rev. 1.03-46 -
