- CUSTOM GRAPHICS EXAMPLE
- 1. Determine the matrix size for the graphic. It must be in 8 dot by 8 dot blocks. The example here has six blocks horizontally and six blocks vertically (48 x 48).
- 2. Lay out a grid and draw the image on the grid.
- 3. Transfer the image into a bit map representation and then into hexadecimal format:
- 4. Using the hexadecimal data, send the following code to print the graphic image as designed.
- 5. To send the data in binary format, the software must convert the data into binary format before transmitting it to the printer. Using the BASIC programming language for example, this is done by notation “CHR$ (&HC0)” which sends the hexidecima...

Unit 5: Optional Command Codes
“i” Programming Reference
5-4 PN: 9001158B
DEVICE NAME, CONFIGURATION
FUNCTION
Specifies the applicable Bluetooth device name.
FORMAT
<ESC>I8a
a=
Device name settings: ASCII characters other than control codes 20H
to 7EH (1 to 20 alphanumeric characters).
Place after <ESC>A and before <ESC>Z.
EXAMPLE
<ESC>A
<ESC>I8PRINTER_No.1
<ESC>Z
OUTPUT
This command does not result in printer output.
NOTES
This command is only valid for printers conforming to Bluetooth specifications.
This command must be preceded by the <ESC>A command and followed by the <ESC>Z command in
a separate string and cannot be used in conjunction with other commands.
This command becomes valid upon restarting of the printer and may be confirmed by performing a test
print.
The quantity of characters used to identify the device name may vary up to 20 characters. If that
quantity is exceeded, the command will be ignored.
The default setting is as follows: SATO MOBILE PRINTER.
When restarting the printer after command execution, the command contents will be processed for
Bluetooth interface. The printer will go into sleep mode after completing the settings and the printer can
then be powered off. Do not power off theprinter until it has gone into sleep mode.
