(*1) The value number in the table above is the same value as
parameter a.
(*2) The setting is determined by the value defined in Function 5.
Settings expressed as decimal numbers are converted to ASCII
character data and transmitted from the most significant digit.
Example: When 120 bytes is being used, 120 is expressed with 3 bytes
of data (decimal numbers = 49, 50, 48).
The host can differentiate the data for the customized memory setting
from other data the printer transmits by the specific information in the
transmit data block. When the header transmitted from the printer is
0x37 or 55 decimal, the data up to NUL (0x00 or 0 decimal) is handled
as one group and can be identified using the following data:
Transmit data Hex Decimal
1
st
byte (header) 0x37 55
2
nd
byte
(identifier)
0x27 39
However, consider the following requirement for data processing:
• When communication with the printer uses XON/XOFF control, the
XOFF code may interrupt the “Header to NUL” data string.
a = 9: If the setting “Auto” is selected and no WINCOR-NIXDORF power
supply is used, the printer responds with the string “ID-FAIL 48” and
selects 48 Watt. In this case the user has to set a fix maximum power
setting according to the used power supply.
a = 9: Please note that a reduced maximum power setting leads to a
bad performance of print speed and print quality.
