  • Page 5 1. SCOPE This specification applies to the external equipment interface for use with the Model B-SV4D general- purpose thermal label/tag printers. 2. GENERAL DESCRIPTION The external equipment interface connects a printer to the host computer through a serial interface (RS- 232C), parallel interface (Centronics), or a network for making various settings and printing labels.

(Transmission or non-transmission of the XON code is selectable by means of the parameter setting.) The printer sends an XOFF code (13H) when the blank positions in the receive buffer become 1K bytes or less.
  • Page 8 XON/XOFF (DC1/DC3) Protocol + READY/BUSY (DTR) Protocol When initialized after power on, this printer becomes ready to receive data and turns the DTR signal to “High” level (READY). The printer also sends an XON code (11H). When the blank positions in the receive buffer are 1K bytes or less, the printer turns the DTR signal to “Low”...

Therefore, the character string number which differs according to the drawing fields should be designated. Since the automatic field clear is not performed between the Clear Command ([ESC] C) and Issue Command ([ESC] XS), the fixed data may be drawn using the same character string number.
