List of Commands and Location
Commands control all operations and functions of the printer. This includes
selecting the size and placement of characters and graphics on the receipt or the
slip and feeding and cutting the paper. Any of the commands may be used in any
combination to program a host computer to communicate with the printer
(unless otherwise noted).
Some commands listed and described here may not be implemented. They will
be identified as “not implemented”. If received, they are ignored and not sent to
the print buffer as data. Any non-legal commands are sent to the print buffer as
data.
