IBM TF6 Printer User Manual


 
v “Print predefined graphics (logo) command” on page 159 can be included
in this command. Select and print a graphics command can not be used.
See “Print graphic messages” on page 157.
v “Print predefined messages” on page 159 can be included in this
command, but can only be nested one message deep.
Example: Store a predefined message (’Jane Doe’) at location 3, then
issue the following commands:
1. X'1D3A06'
2. ’Welcome to Our Store’ X'0D'
3. X'1D5E03' (This prints the message that has been stored at location
3. The message can not have a X'1D5Exx' in it, because that would
be more than one level of nesting.)
4. ’Is Your Cashier Today’ X'0D'
5. X'1D3A'
Using the stored message and the above commands, the resulting text
will be:
Welcome to Our Store
Jane Doe Is Your Cashier Today
v These commands can not be included in the predefined message:
“Define document wait time” on page 141.
“Select character for reprinted lines” on page 142.
“Set sheet eject length” on page 138.
“Select and print a graphics (logo) command” on page 157.
