This command defines the desired horizontal tab positions. Variables n1...nx represent each
tab position. Up to 16 tab positions are allowed. Minimum allowed value is “1”.
Tab position 255 sets a tab stop on the last position of the line. Use this if you want underline
or reversed text to extend across the full paper width. Note that the tab positions are always
expressed in number of 2.5-mm steps.
Graphics commands
For the TTP 8200, the line length in bytes is 1 x, see parameter 48 on page 84.
For the TTP 8300, the line length in bytes is 1.5 x, see parameter 48 on page 84.
In the TTP 8200, that is 210 bytes for the A4 printer and 216 bytes for the Letter size printer.
Prints a black & white Windows bitmap (BMP-file with 1-bit color depth) at the specified X-Y
position. The bit-map must be a complete uncompressed Windows bitmap where the data
starts with BM. Max size is limited to the free RAM printed on the self-test printout.
After the bitmap has been printed, the cursor will return to the X-position that it had before the
bitmap command was issued.
Selecting horizontal mode (with <ESC>o<0>) prints the image in portrait orientation, while
selecting the vertical mode (with <ESC>o<1>) prints the image in landscape orientation.
ESC F
Set Horizontal Tabs
1B 46 n1...n16 hex
27 70 n1...n16 decimal
n = 1 Means 2.5 mm from the left-hand edge of the print window.
N = NUL Ends the string
Example • Sets tab stops at 12.5, 25, 37.5, 50, and 62.5 mm.
Send ESC F 5 10 15 20 25 0
Note • Do not use value n = 0. The values must be sorted from low to high numbers.
ESC b n1...n5 data
Print Bitmap at XY-position
1B 62 n1...n5 Data hex
27 98 n1...n5 Data decimal
n1 Always 0
n2n3 Two byte definition of the X print position (in pixels).
n4n5 Two byte definition of the Y print position (in pixels).
data Bitmap data.
Note • The Y print-position and horizontal/vertical orientation only works if fixed page
length is used.
