Confidential TM-H6000/H6000P Developer’s Guide Connectors WARNING: Do not connect a telephone line to the drawer kick-out connector or the display module connector; otherwise the printer and the telephone line may be damaged. You can connect up to four cables to the printer. They all connect to the connector panel (on the bottom rear of the printer), which is shown below.
Confidential PAPER OUT This light comes on when the printer is out, or nearly out, of roll paper. The printer has a paper end detector, and it also has a near-end detector (which can be adjusted) to warn you that the printer is nearly out of paper. See Chapter 5 for information on adjusting the detector. This light blinks during the self-test printing standby state or macro execution standby state (when the macro execution command is used).

Confidential Error Processing Error Types The printer stops all printer operations for the selected paper section, goes offline, and blinks the ERROR LED when detecting an error. ❏ Errors that automatically recover ERROR LED Blinking Pattern ERROR Description Print head temperature error The temperature of the print head is extremely high 320 ms Recovery Recovers automatically when the print head cools Note: Print head temperature error is not abnormal.
Confidential TM-H6000/H6000P Developer’s Guide See Chapter 5 for removing a paper jam. Note: When the printer recovers from an error using DLE ENQ 1 while slip paper is selected, the printer first ejects the slip, then loads paper. However, when the printer recovers from a slip ejection error, the printer only ejects the slip and does not load paper. When the printer recovers from an error using DLE ENQ 2 while slip paper is selected, the printer ejects the slip.
Confidential Sensors Paper Sensors Receipt section ❏ Paper roll near-end sensor: • The sensor is located on the roll paper supply device on the receipt section. It detects the near-end of the paper roll by detecting the paper roll diameter. You can adjust the sensor. See Chapter 5 for details on adjustment. • When the printer detects a paper near-end, it either stops or continues printing, depending on the ESC c 4 setting.
Confidential TM-H6000/H6000P Developer’s Guide ❏ Slip eject sensor: • The slip eject sensor is located in the slip paper exit and detects whether the paper is removed or not after printing. The printer does not proceed to the next operation until the paper has been removed.
Confidential Slip section ❏ Front cover open sensor: • When the sensor detects a cover open during printing, the printer finishes printing data for the line when the cover open is detected; then stops the carriage movement and goes offline. The printer goes online when the cover is closed and restarts printing. Self Tests The self tests let you know if your printer is operating properly. There are self tests for both roll paper and slip paper.
Confidential TM-H6000/H6000P Developer’s Guide 3. Feed a sheet of slip paper into the printer. The printer loads the paper automatically, prints the printer settings, and then ejects the paper. (The SLIP light blinks.) 4. Remove the paper from the printer and feed another sheet of slip paper into the printer to print characters from the character table.
Confidential • In hex dump mode all commands except DLE EOT, DLE ENQ, and DLE DC4 are disabled. 5. Open the cover to set the printer offline so that it will print the last line. 6. Close the cover and turn off the printer, press the FEED button three times, or reset the printer to turn off the hex dump mode.

Slip Printer New Slip Printer Functions The following are the new slip printer functions: ❏ 90° Right Rotation Printing on Slips • On the TM-H6000, you also can print characters rotated 90° to the right.
Confidential TM-H6000/H6000P Developer’s Guide Usage of ESC V (Specification/Cancellation of Character Rotation 90° to the Right) This command specifies and cancels character rotation 90° to the right. In addition, when printing on slips (front), you can specify 1 dot or 1.5 dot spacing. This section explains an actual example of printing on a slip (front). In this example, “ABC” is printed using font A.
Confidential Slip Printing in Page Mode The TM-H6000 printer can print on the front surface of slips in page mode. The maximum number of dots in the horizontal direction is 540 half dots. When the initial value for the basic pitch is 160, the maximum values for d x 1 and d x 2 are 28 and 2, respectively, which are specified by the ESC W command. In addition, you cannot specify the following values for bit image printing.
Confidential TM-H6000/H6000P Developer’s Guide ESC T 3 (3 or 51) (down from top right) Printing on the Back of Slip Paper On a TM-H6000 with the endorsement printer mechanism option, you can print on the back of slips without turning them over. However, please note the following limitations: Printed characters and number of characters ❏ You can print only 95 alphanumeric characters and 37 international characters in the 5 x 7 dot configuration. ❏ You can print a maximum of 40 characters on one line.
Confidential This command is also valid after printing on the front of a slip is selected with the ESC c 0 command. NV User Memory Since a Flash ROM is used for the NV memory, the data is not lost when power is turned off. Therefore, saving the data for bit images that are printed regularly eliminates the need to download the data, saving time. There is also an NV user area for data in the memory that can be used for a memo or other purposes.
Confidential TM-H6000/H6000P Developer’s Guide ❏ After the printer sends a maximum of 83 bytes, it waits for instructions from the host. Therefore, it is necessary to send the following instructions: Response Procedure ASCII Decimal Hexadecimal ACK 6 6 Send next data/End process NAK 21 15 Resend previous data CAN 24 18 Cancel process Command Usage Example This section describes the procedure to write the data, read the data you have written, and to delete the data.
Confidential When the printer receives this, it sends back 84 bytes, consisting of the header (37h) + identifier (70h) + status (41h) + data (80 characters) + terminator (00h), and then the printer waits for a response from the host. The status of 41h in the paragraph above indicates there is more data. When the host receives data normally from the printer, it sends an ACK (6) code, requesting the subsequent data.
Confidential TM-H6000/H6000P Developer’s Guide Step 7: confirming usage amount Send the following command to confirm the amount of NV user memory currently being used (in decimal numbers): GS ( C 3 0 0 3 0 The printer sends the following data: header (37h) + identifier (28h) + data (max. 8 bytes) + terminator (00h). Numbers are converted into ASCII codes and sent in byte units. For example, when 271 bytes are used, “32h + 37h + 31h” is sent.
Confidential The value of a defines the specific function. The data from d1 through dk determines the number of bytes used by each command, but it is not necessary to specify these parameters in some cases. Carefully check the specification procedure for the command function you are using. Customization of the NV Area The GS ( E command can change the size of the NV user memory and NV bit image memory for a particular application. The allowable settings are described below.
Confidential TM-H6000/H6000P Developer’s Guide After this command is sent, the printer returns data indicating that it has changed into the user setting mode. This confirmation consists of 3 bytes: header (37h) + identifier (20h) + NUL (00h). Be sure the printer has sent these three bytes to ensure the setting has been performed properly. Step 2: customization of NV memory This command allocates the NV memory. You can use the command below to expand the standard NV user memory from 1KB to 128KB.
