[. . . ] · Unplug this product from the wall outlet before cleaning. · Do not use this product near water. · Do not place this product on an unstable cart, stand or table. The product may fall, causing serious damage to the product. [. . . ] · If a new position is specified to the right of the current position in the direction of printing, it should be specified as positive (+). If it is to the left, it should be as negative(-). · A negative value is the complement of 65536. For example, to move the position by N pitches to the left, specify it as: nL + nH × 256 = 65536 - N · The basic calculation pitch is set by GS P. · Fractions resulting from calculation are corrected with the minimum pitch of the mechanism, and the remainder is omitted. · In STANDARD MODE, this command uses the horizontal basic calculation pitch (x). · In PAGE MODE, this command acts differently depending on the start point: (1) If the start point specified by ESC T is top left or bottom right, the command specifies the relative position in the direction perpendicular to the paper feed (The character's side-to-side direction), using the horizontal basic calculation pitch (x). (2) If the start point is top right or bottom left, the command specifies the relative position in the paper feed direction (The character's side-to-side direction), using the vertical basic calculation pitch (y).

These definitions are, therefore, interchanged when 90 -right-turned characters are specified. · In PAGE MODE, the vertical direction means the top-bottom direction of each character. The horizontal direction means the side-to-side direction of each character. -- 95 -- · If characters of different vertical magnification are contained in a line, the baseline of each character is lined up. · Horizontal and vertical magnification can also be specified/ canceled by ESC !. command, whichever is handled last, becomes effective.

[. . . ] Wenn die Steuerung per DTR/DSR nicht aktiviert ist, ignoriert der Computer dieses Signal und sendet Daten an den Drucker. Dieses Signal kann auch als Rücksetzungssignal nach Ändern der DIP-Schalterstellung verwendet werden (siehe 5. 2 "DIP-Schaltertabelle"). Wenn die Pulsbreite des Signals 1 ms oder länger beträgt, wird eine Rücksetzungssignal übertragen. (5) INIT Dieses Signal kann als Rücksetzungssignal verwendet werden, nachdem Sie die Stellung des entsprechenden DIP-Schalters geändert haben (siehe 5. 2 "DIPSchaltertabelle"). [. . . ]
