  • aL, aH and bL, bH specify the serial number counter ranges (maximum or minimum value).
  • n specifies the stepping amount for counting up or down.
  • r specifies the repetition number with the counter value.

[Recommended Functions]

This command is supported by some printer models and will not be supported by future models.
ESC/POS does not have a substitute command.

[Notes]

  • When this command is executed, the internal counter which counts the repetition number of printing is 0.
  • This command does not change the counter value. The counter value is set by GS C 2   [obsolete command] .
  • The value of the counter is updated when executing GS c   [obsolete command] by following the count mode set by this command.
    • In the Count-up mode, if the counter value exceeds the maximum value (bL + bH × 256), counting is restarted from the minimum value (aL + aH × 256).
    • In the Count-down mode, if the counter value is below the minimum value (bL + bH × 256), counting is restarted from the maximum value (aL + aH × 256).
    • In the Count-stop mode, the counter value is not changed.
  • The settings for a range of a counter set by GS C ;   [obsolete command] , stepping amount of incrementing or decrementing of a counter value, the repetition number of printing is disabled by processing this command.
  • Settings of this command are effective until GS C ;   [obsolete command] is executed, ESC @ is executed, the printer is reset, or the power is turned off.
