SureMark Printers User's Guide
Note: Spacing in the document-portrait is actually 6.375 lines per inch. Line
spacing dimension is approximate. For the impact printer in portrait
mode, the actual line spacing must be calculated using 51 steps per
inch.
In the impact (document - landscape) station this would be set to 21
steps/line.
This command should be sent after "Set print station parameters" on page
133.
This command is supported only for Models TI3, TI4, TI8, TG3, TG4, TF6, and
TM6.
RS-232 Syntax:
ESC r n or X'1B;72;n;'
where:
n =
00
01
02
Default:
n = 00
Purpose:
To enable half-character or full-character color printing, or to disable color
printing.
Remarks:
v You can enable and disable full-character color printing within a print line.
This enables you to print one word in a different color.
v This command can be used up to 8 times in a line when full-character
color printing is used.
v Half-character color printing is only supported at the beginning of a print
line.
v If both bit 1 and bit 0 of n are set (n=03), only half-character color
printing will be enabled.
Limitations:
v This command is only valid if the Enable Color Printing command (see
"Select thermal paper" on page 144) is sent first.
v When color paper is enabled, depending on the paper, the printer might
be limited to printing at 15 lps when printing 8 lpi.
