Set Absolute Horizontal Print Position In 1/60 Inch; Set Bit 7 Of Incoming Data Bytes To 1; Set Form Length In Inches - Printronix P5000LJ Series Programmer's Reference Manual

Set Absolute Horizontal Print Position in 1/60 Inch

Set Absolute Horizontal Print Position in 1/60 Inch
ASCII Code ESC $ n1 n2
Hex Code 1B 24 n1 n2
27 36 n1 n2
Dec Code
Purpose Moves the logical print head to an absolute horizontal print
position, using 1/60 inch increments.
where ( n1 + [256 n2 ]) / 60 = the unsigned distance in inches from the
left margin.
n1 = (Number of DATA bytes) - 256( n2 )
(remainder of division of number of DATA bytes by 256,
sometimes referred to as MOD 256)
n2 = Number of DATA bytes) / 256 (quotient of division)
Discussion If the distance goes beyond right margin, the sequence is
ignored.

Set Bit 7 of Incoming Data Bytes to 1

ASCII Code ESC >
Hex Code 1B 3E
Dec Code 27 62
Purpose Sets the most significant bit (MSB) of all incoming data to 1.
Discussion The MSB is bit number 7. This command only affects text and
control code data. Graphics data pass through unchanged.

Set Form Length in Inches

ASCII Code ESC C NUL n
Hex Code 1B 43 00 n
Dec Code 27 67 0 n
Purpose Sets form length to n inches.
where n = whole numbers from 1 through 24 to specify the number of
inches on a form.
Discussion Upon receipt of this code, the current line becomes the first line
of the form, and the form length set becomes the current forms
length. Vertical tab positions set below the bottom of the form
are ignored. Forms length is defined in inches; therefore,
subsequent line spacing changes do not affect the result of this
command.
Values of n greater than 24 are ignored.
When forms length is set by an ESC C sequence, the skip-over
perforation set by ESC N is cancelled.
This control code overrides forms length set at the control panel.
