Printer Command Field
Every printer has its own set of commands. In some cases it would be
helpful to take advantage of a printer’s built-in functionality. To do
this, enclose the decimal versions of the printer’s commands in double
back slashes (\\) in the Notepad file.
The example below will initialize and set the character pitch for an
Epson FX printer:
\\27 64 27 103\\
In order to use printer commands when the printer is connected to a
parallel port, LPT1 or LPT2, the printer Device Type must be set to
“Direct to Printer Port” in Admin | Preferences | Ticket Printer Port.
This bypasses the print driver and sends the data directly to the printer.
Column Posting Field
To position text at a specific column, use the following syntax:
COL20 [AccountName]
The example above will place Account Name at print column 20 of the
current line. The COLnn command must be followed by space.
