/Xiiippp

The

command is used to change the “interline” value and it is expressed in number of

dots. The cursor will move down (in relation to the current orientation) with every

command. The value of the “spacing” also expressed in number of dots, will move the

cursor to the right (in respect to the selected orientation) every time a new character is de-

signed in the bitmap.

It must be followed by 2 parameters made up of 3 digits with the following significance:

iii

interline in dots (values: from -99 to 999);

ppp

spacing in dots (values: from -99 to 999).

Interline and spacing are set by default every time a font is selected according to the char-

acter dimensions (see the instructions for the

command). They can be changed with this

command by adding or subtracting the desired number of dots.

The correction of the spacing is correlated to the fixed or proportional spaced fonts.

Note: the values input with this command are automatically multiplied by the

horizontal and vertical expansion factors set with the last font selection command.

/Yb.. b

The

command is used to download a user defined character set which will replace the

default international character set. It also uses the area of the memory designated for the

magnum and mega fonts.

It must be followed by 256 bytes of binary values from 00 to FF hex (from 0 to 255 dec),

defining in this way the correspondence between the printable characters of the ASCII

code and the physical position associated with the dot matrix of the font. The character

map is common to all fonts.

The

command is used to set the printer back to the configuration stored in the non

volatile memory. This function is performed each time the printer is switched on.

Note: the command is executed automatically every time the printer is switched on.
