Large character printing Certain professional applications may require unusually large char-
acter sizes. Therefore your printer has the possibility of scaling stan-
dard size characters up to factor 99 by means of control sequences
(LCP1).
The Header sequence defines the parameters (e.g. height) once.
This definition remains until the printer is switched off.
The printable LCP* information is transmitted in an LCP “bracket”
(SI).
The following character sets (with national characters) are available:
The character sets are selected via the following LCP sequence
ESC ”P“ ”L“ ”S“ n ESC ”\“. The value of n may range between 01 and
02 (as ASCII characters) – see ID column in the above table.
To select e.g. the german character set, you must use the following
data set:
The printout of LCP characters can be selected in all of the
emulations. Prerequisite: Printer must be in Barcode mode.
Note that this printer supports some scalable fonts in the
LQ-2170 emulation if a compatible driver is used.
