B.2 COMMANDS
B.2.1 Ticket Alignment.
Two alignment commands are available: $1D $F6 and $1D $F8.
The command $1D $F6 performs an alignment to the print head: the paper is fed through until the print head
is at the fi rst available alignment point.
The command $1D $F8 on the other hand refers to the cutter: the paper is fed through until the cutter is at
the set alignment point, so that a subsequent cut will occur precisely at the alignment point.
Further explanations can be found in command documentation.
B.2.2 Setting the alignment distance.
The "Notch Distance" parameter can be changed via the printer setup or by using the command $1D $E7 nH
nL. For further information refer to the command itself.
B.2.3 Examples.
N.B.: To a better comprehension, in the following fi gures, the Notch is indicated on the same
side of the printing text.
Example 1.
To print a ticket's sequence witch the cut is made over the notch it's necessary set the notch distance to zero
as follows (this setting have effect after the ticket already in the printer):
{Set Notch Distance}
$1D,$E7,$00,$00,
