Page 5: Overview
REGO Thermal Printer Technical Manual 1. Overview This manual contains all the general control commands for the below REGO thermal printer models. It is about the use of various control commands and notes. However, different models have different specific parameters and functions, in this manual may not contain all of them. So please contact REGO technical team if there were any questions or supports required. - Page 6 REGO Thermal Printer Technical Manual Effective printing width It refers to the maximum printing width of the printer which depends on the printer itself. For example: for a 80mm paper width printer, its printing width is 72mm(576 dots), but for a 58mm paper width printer, the printing width can be 48mm(384 dots).
