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 to feeding and cutting
the paper. The operation of various printers may be emulated by the commands,
including the following:
♦ Axiohm A793
♦ Axiohm A794 Native Mode
♦ Epson TM-T88
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.
All items in BOLD are new or have additional functionality when compared to the
A793.
