Mio Video I/O Port Control - Brother HL-1050 Technical Reference Manual

8/2/2010
If the key is [RENAME], this command allows the printer to change the name field of the AppleTalk name
binding protocol.
<ESC>&b#WRENAME<sp>printername
printername should be specified with 1 to 31 characters.
The characters $00 to $FF (except for $00, @, :, *, =, $C5) can be used for the printername.
$00 is used as the terminator.
If invalid characters are used, this command is ignored.
If the [key] is set to [JOB], this command changes the current job name.
<ESC>&b#WJOB<sp>jobname
All characters from $00 to $FF can be used for the jobname.
jobname can have a maximum of 127 characters.
If the [key] is set to [TYPE], this command allows the printer to change the type field of the AppleTalk
name binding protocol.
<ESC>&b#WTYPE<sp>devicetype
devicetype should be specified with 1 to 31 characters.
The characters $00 to $FF (except for $00, @, :, *, =, $C5) can be used for the devicetype.
$00 is used as the terminator.
If invalid characters are used, this command is ignored.

7.4.11. MIO video I/O port control

The HL-1660e and 2060 printers have only the "VSREQ" signal for vertical synchronization that can be sent to
the MIO port. This causes a short delay to the actual printing start after sending the VSREQ signal if the video
controller is processing an interrupt. This delay causes an incorrect vertical printing position. To avoid the
problem, the following command is useful.
EscCR!12340M
Laser diode video interface port of the MIO port is closed.
EscCR!12341M
Laser diode video interface port of the MIO port is opened.
EscCR!12342M
Laser diode video interface port of the MIO port is opened and the print start command is sent to the printer
engine immediately after sending the VSREQ signal.
