Chapter 4. ANSI Emulation Commands

The following printer commands are supported by this printer according to the ANSI X3.64 emulation.

Most dimensional parameters in ANSI protocol are expressed in “decipoints”. For example:

1 decipoint = 1/720 inch

72 decipoints = 1/10 inch

120 decipoints = 1/6 inch

720 decipoints = 1 inch

2880 decipoints = 4 inches

All parameter values must be expressed as ASCII numeric rather than binary values.

Parameters, within commands with multiple parameters, must be separated by a semicolon “;”.

See “Basic Program Sample” on page 86 and result printed by the printer.
