

If 200 is specified for Parameter e, the setting for Parameter d does not affect the printer's

operation.

Sets the escape sequence identifier based on Parameter i.

This is enabled only when

200 is specified for Parameter e.



Sets the symbol shape based on Parameter f.

This is enabled only when 200 is specified for

Parameter e.

[Encoding]



Encoding can be determined by the meta characters in the field data.

Meta character processing

is different depending on if the error correction level is ECC000 to ECC140 or ECC200.



If it is ECC000 to ECC140, the meta characters in the following table can be used.

Meta

character

Special character or character

\&

CR and LF

||

Backslash <\>



If it is ECC200, the meta character is recognized by a combination of a certain character and the

escape sequence identifier.

The following table indicates the special characters or characters

that can be specified for meta characters (the escape sequence identifier is shown using the tilde

<~> as an example).

Meta

character

Special character or character

~1

FNC1

~2

FNC2

~3

FNC3

~5

The code page is specified by the 3-character decimal following the

meta character.

~d

Characters specified by the 3-character decimal ASCII code

following the meta character.

~

Tilde <~>

~X

X is any single character that is ASCII code 40H to 5FH.

Control

characters specified in ASCII code minus 40H.



In the field data specification, if the hexadecimal input is set using "^FH", first processing to

specify the characters by hexadecimal input is performed, and then the processing to specify the

characters by meta character is performed.



If the error correction level is ECC200, the number of encodable characters is a maximum of 3116

characters for numerals, 2335 characters for alphanumerics, and 1556 bytes for binary.

[Response]
