The model-specific customized value
Value differs, depending on the printer models. See model specific information.
  • The setting unit specified by (nL + nH × 256) differs, depending on the printer model.
  • ARP stands for Automatic Reduction of Paper.

[Notes]

  • This function works only in user setting mode. To enter the user setting mode, execute GS ( E   <Function 1>
  • Customized value is specified by unit of 3 bytes (a, nL, nH)

  • To activate the customized values you set with this function, you must terminate the user setting mode by GS ( E   <Function 2> .
  • When you change the (a = 1) or (a = 2) setting, the printer clears all data in the NV user memory and the NV graphics memory.
  • If you attempt to set a combination of settings that is not possible for (a = 1) and (a = 2), the NV graphics memory setting is reduced to an allowable value.
  • The setting value of the print speed (a = 6) is effective when the printer performs in proper condition. Print speed may slow temporarily, depending on the operating environment or the print duty.
  • Customized values set are valid until the following operations are executed. They are not initialized by power off or ESC @.
    • Execution of this function
    • Execution of memory switch setting mode by panel operation when the power is turned on (supported by some printer models)
