Print And Reverse Feed N Lines; Reverse Feed N Lines; Reverse Feed N Dots; Vertical And Horizontal Positioning - CognitiveTPG A776 Programming Manual

Print and reverse feed n lines

ASCII ESC e n
Hexadecimal
1B 65 n
Decimal 27 101 n
Value of n: The number of lines on the slip station
to be reverse fed.
Range of n: 0 – 255
Prints one line from the buffer and reverse feeds the paper n lines on the slip station. The receipt station cannot be
reverse fed.

Reverse feed n lines

ASCII
GS DC4 n
Hexadecimal 1D 14 n
Decimal
29 20 n
Range of n: 0 – 127
0 – 255
Reverses the paper feed in the slip station by n lines at the current spacing. The next character feed command returns
the paper feed back to the normal feed direction. This command is ignored if slip is not the selected station. Current
spacing is not a factor.

Reverse feed n dots

ASCII GS NAK n
Hexadecimal
1D 15 n
Decimal 29 21 n
Value of n: n dots at 1/72 inch
Range of n:
0 – 127
0 – 255
Reverses the paper feed in the slip station by n dots at 1/72 inch (CognitiveTPG 7150™ command). This command is
ignored if receipt station is selected.

Vertical and horizontal positioning

The horizontal positioning commands control the horizontal print positions of characters on
the receipt and slip.

Horizontal tab

ASCII
HT
Hexadecimal 09
Decimal
9
Moves the print position to the next tab position set by the set horizontal tab positions (1B 44 n1 n2 ... 00) command.
The print position is reset to column one after each line.
Tab treats the left margin as column one, therefore changes to the left margin will move the tab positions.
When no tabs are defined to the right of the current position, or if the next tab is past the right margin, line feed is
executed. HT has no effect in page mode.
Print initialization sets 32 tabs at column 9, 17, 25...
