Generate pulse to open cash drawer

ASCII

ESC p n p1 p2

Hexadecimal 1B 70 n p1 p2
Decimal

27 112 n p1 p2

Value of n:

00, 48 (Decimal) = Drawer 1;

01, 49 (Decimal) = Drawer 2

Value of p1:

0–255

Value of p2:

0–255

Sends a pulse to open the cash drawer.

Formulas

The value for either p1 or p2 is the hexadecimal number
multiplied by 2 msec to equal the total time.
• On-time = p1 (Hex) x 2 msec
• Off-time = p2 (Hex) x 2 msec
Related information

Off-time is the delay before the printer performs the next
operation. Refer to cash drawer specifications for required
on and off-time.

Set current color

ASCII

ESC r m

Hexadecimal 1B 72 m
Decimal

27 114 m

Default of m: 0 (monochrome)

This command will set the current color to the color m for
all character data that may follow this command and all
graphic objects (bit images) that have not been explicitly
loaded as two-color.

m= 0 (monochrome) is the initial value
m= 1 (two-color paper “primary color”, usually black)
m= 2 (second color available from two-color paper)

The m values 0 and 1 will not have a distinguishable
effect; 0 is the initial value and provides parameter value
consistency with other commands.

Description

When the monochrome paper type command (00) is set,
this command is recognized and retained but has no effect.
The monochrome paper selection (usually black) controls
the output.
When two-color paper is loaded and the two-color paper
type command set, this command will designate which of
the two colors will be used for everything not specified as
having an explicit color parameter(s) such as color logos,
side bars, surround graphics, background watermarks or
color raster graphics.

Exception

After a power loss or reset the default value m=0 is reset.
