GS c   [obsolete command]

If the counter value is smaller than minimum value or bigger than maximum value when executing this command, the counter value is changed based on the count mode set before stored in the print buffer.

• In the Count-up mode, the counter value is set to the minimum.
• In the Count-down mode, the counter value is set to the maximum.
• In the Count-stop mode, the counter value is not changed.

After setting the current counter value in the print buffer as print data (a character string), the printer updates counter value based on the count mode set.

• In count-up mode, the counter value is updated as [counter value + increase and decrease value].
• In count-down mode, the counter value is updated as [counter value - increase and decrease value].
• In count-stop mode, the counter value is not updated.

The counter value in the print buffer is printed when the printer receives a print command or is in the buffer-full state.

The counter print mode is set by GS C 0   [obsolete command] .

The count mode (count-up, count-down, count-stop) and details of counter (maximum value, minimum value, stepping amount of incrementing or decrementing of a counter value, the repetition number of printing) are set by GS C 1   [obsolete command] or GS C ;   [obsolete command] .

The counter value is set by GS C 2   [obsolete command] or GS C ;   [obsolete command] .
