• For example to break the value 520 into two bytes use the following two equations 7
• Int and mod 7
• Int simply deletes the fraction part of the number and the value of nh is calculated as shown below 7
• Mod on the other hand results in the remainder of the division operation of the fraction part as shown below 7
• Some command parameters may exceed 256 and require two bytes of data these variables are listed with the subscripts l for low and h for high for example 7
• To determine the value of these two bytes this manual uses the int and mod conventions int indicates the integer or whole number part of a number while mod indicates the remainder of a division operation 7

• Do not assign a registered table to table 2 if you plan to use it for user defined characters once you assign a registered table to table 2 you must reset the printer with the esc command before you can use it for user defined characters 247
• Esc t 3 0 0 0 0 assigns the italic table to active table 0 247
• Esc t 3 0 1 1 0 assigns the pc437 us table to active table 1 247
• Esc t 3 0 2 8 0 assigns the pc865 canada french table to active table 2 247
• Esc t 3 0 3 3 0 assigns the pc850 multilingual table to active table 3 247
• Note you always assign the tables at the beginning of a print job do not assume what the settings are 247
• The esc p 2 command for assigning these tables is esc t the diagram below illustrates this process 247
• The following commands assign character tables to active tables 0 to 3 247
• You can reassign any of the tables at any time without affecting other table assignments 247
• Defining user defined characters 248
• 48 pin printers height width 250
• Note for 9 pin printers nlq user defined characters are available only on lx series printers 250
• Pin printers height width 250
• Planning user defined characters 250
• These traits and the maximum recommended size for each combination of traits is shown in the table below exceeding the width for the following fixed pitches may not allow for sufficient spacing between characters 250
• User defined characters are defined based on a combination of several traits this combination of traits determines the number of dots that can be defined and the amount of data that must be sent for each character 250
• The diagrams below show the planning grids for lq nlq and draft mode characters 251
• 48 pin printers 253
• Before you can define and save your user defined characters you must change the printer settings to match your planned characters the following combinations of character traits are possible 253
• Cancel italic printing 253
• Follow the steps below when setting the traits of your planned user defined and other ram characters only steps 1 and 2 are necessary for 9 pin printers 253
• Note you should not store characters in ram memory when the printer is set to italic printing with the esc 4 command always send the esc 5 command to cancel italic printing before you define user defined characters or copy characters to ram memory 253
• Pin printers 253
• Select or cancel proportional spacing 253
• Select or cancel super subscript characters 253
• Select the print quality lq nlq or draft 253
• Setting user defined character traits 253
• Copying rom characters to ram memory 255
• Preparing data 256
• Storing user defined character data in printer memory 256
• Divide each column into the following groups depending on character and printer traits 257
• Each group of dots is represented by a byte of data and each dot within that group has a value as shown below add up the value of each dot in the group the result is the value for the byte of data 258
• Determine the value of the data bytes for all the columns in your design the printer requires data in the order shown below 259
• Note the printer must receive complete columns of data in other words the number of bytes received must be a multiple of 3 for normal height characters on 24 48 pin printers and 9 pin nlq characters or a multiple of 2 for super subscript characters draft 9 pin character columns are only 1 byte high 259
• Deciding where to store data 260
• Sending user defined characters to the printer 262
• Attribute byte table 264
• For example to define a character that begins in column 2 and ends in 9 during proportional spacing and is printed with the upper 8 pins determine the attribute byte as follows 264
• Note the beginning column and ending column settings are only used during proportional spacing during proportional spacing the columns to the left of the beginning column and to the right of the ending column are cut off 264
• Proportional spacing is not available on lx series printers 264
• This information is stored within the attribute byte as shown below 264
• To determine the value of the attribute byte add up the numbers for the parameters you wish to set 264
• Total attribute byte 169 264
• Value value beginning column is 2 32 ending column is 9 9 upper 8 pins 128 264
• You must send an attribute byte for each character you define 264
• Switching to ram character printing 267
• Pin printer 268
• Esc r n 272
• Selecting an international character set 272
• The format for this command is as follows 272
• The parameter n determines which character set is selected 272
• The table below shows these characters and their codes in the helvetica typeface as well as the value of the parameter used in the esc r command to select each character set 272
• You can change up to 12 of the characters in the current character table with the esc r command these 12 characters are called international character sets because they correspond to characters commonly used in several foreign languages 272
• Double strike esc g esc h 273
• Each time you change one of the above attributes the printer selects a new font if a font matching the selected attributes is not available in the printer s rom memory the printer manufactures a temporary font with those attributes 273
• Esc p 2 includes the esc x command for selecting scalable fonts differences in handling scalable fonts are discussed in each section 273
• However fonts are defined by six attributes 273
• Score esc esc 273
• Select a font 273
• Shadow outline esc q 273
• The term font is often confused with typeface because the electronic printer field has evolved from basic beginnings these two terms have often been used interchangeably 273
• You can modify each font with several enhancements as follows 273
• You can set these attributes in any order changing one attribute does not affect any other attribute however the printer selects fonts internally in the above order so using that order is the most efficient 273
• Print quality draft lq or nlq 274
• Standard and scalable fonts multipoint mode 274
• During multipoint mode sending the commands below results in the following 275
• Esc t n 275
• Selecting the character table 275
• The character table is one attribute of the font selecting a different character table selects a different font 275
• The parameter n is the number of the character table 275
• Use the esc t command to select the character table the format for this command is as follows 275
• With esc p 2 you can select from four active character tables see assign character tables for details 275
• With previous esc p versions you can select from two character tables italics and graphics 275
• Selecting the point size 276
• Selecting the typeface 278
• Selecting the pitch 279

• Esc u sets a unit that is used for moving the print position and setting the page format esc v sets the absolute vertical position on the page esc v sets the relative vertical position on the page 288
• Horizontal movement is performed with commands available in previous esc p versions however now the increment of movement is the unit set with the esc u command 288
• Moving the horizontal position 288
• The following sections describe moving the print position with explanations for both esc p 2 and previous esc p versions 288
• The format of the esc command is as follows 288
• The horizontal print position is defined as the position where the left most printable column of dots is printed for the next character or graphics design 288
• The resulting horizontal position is determined by the formula below 288
• These new commands are 288
• To move the the horizontal print position independent of character printing the recommended commands are as follows 288
• When you print characters or spaces the printer automatically moves the print position according to the pitch you select or the width of each character if you select proportional spacing 288
• The defined unit varies as follows esc p 2 printers the unit defined with the esc u command non esc p 2 printers 1 60 inch 289
• The defined unit varies as follows esc p 2 printers the unit defined with the esc u command non esc p2 24 48 pin printers lq mode 1 180 inch draft mode 1 120 inch 9 pin printers 1 120 inch 289
• The format of the esc command is as follows 289
• The horizontal position is determined by the formula below 289
• To move to the left of the current print position 289
• To move to the right of the current print position 289
• Moving the vertical position 291

• Data bytes 298
• Dot density 298
• Specifies the number of dot columns to follow determined by the following equation 298
• The number of bytes required for each dot column shown below 298
• You must specify the vertical and horizontal dot density of graphics when sending the esc command the dot densities available are shown in the table below 298
• Preparing bit image data 299
• After plotting the design divide the grid into groups one dot wide and eight dots high 300
• Sending graphics data r 69 300

• Esc u 1 0 10 selects 1 360 inch unit esc u 1 0 20 selects 1 180 inch unit 307
• Next create a grid for plotting your design if the horizontal density is not the same as the vertical density make a grid that reflects this 307
• Once you have decided the dot density use the esc u to set the unit to match the vertical dot density 307
• See the sample grid below 307
• The dots in each group have a value as shown in the following diagram calculate the value for each group as shown 307
• The vertical and horizontal dot densities that can be selected are as follows 307
• Divide your image into bands 1 8 or 24 dots high the number of vertical dots is called the band height this is the value you should use for parameter m in the esc command 308
• The band height affects the following 309
• The band height determines the number of times you must send the esc command you must resend the esc command for each band of graphics you print the taller the band height the less number of esc commands you need to send 309
• The following table gives you an idea of how much memory is required for band heights at certain standard widths 309
• The taller the band height the more memory you must prepare in your program to accomodate graphics data 309
• Use the esc command to set line spacing to match the band height the following table shows the command format for each band height 309
• Before sending data you must also determine the width of your graphics image the width is also specified in number of dots of course data must be sent in bytes all data beyond the dot width specified is ignored 310
• Determine the dot width parameters for the esc command as follows 310
• The following illustration shows the dot width and the ignored data 310
• Use a combination of the esc v esc v esc or esc commands to set the beginning position of the first graphics band the print position corresponds to the position of the first printable dot in your image 310
• Full graphics mode esc 0 311
• Standard raster graphics compressed mode esc 1 312
• After sending the following data shaded data bytes are counters send a cr or lf command 313
• During compressed mode divide the image grid into bytes just as with full graphics mode however you then separate repetitive data bytes from nonrepetitive bytes shaded areas indicate repetitive data bytes 313
• Esc 1 10 10 8 72 0 313
• If a data length counter is received the printer prints the specified number of bytes the next byte following the data is treated as a counter 313
• Note if your image has consecutive blank spaces use the repeat counter to send repetitive bytes of nul data bytes with value of 0 this can greatly reduce the amount of data necessary for printing some images 313
• Prints next 5 bytes as data esc 1 10 10 8 48 0 4 10 129 100 63 48 10 first counter byte second counter byte 313
• Since the printer evaluates each counter separately you can include both kinds of counters in the same esc 1 command sequence however the total amount of print data must match the length and height of the graphics band 313
• The esc 1 command would be as follows for the example above 313

• Iso 8859 2 iso latin 2 538
• 48 pin proportional width tables 539
• For example the width of a 26 point e would be determined as follows 539
• Proportional width during multipoint mode esc p 2 only 539
• Proportional width information 539
• The base width in the above equation is the width listed for each character in the 24 48 pin proportional width tables in the next section 539
• The tables in this section list the widths for all proportional 10 point characters on 24 48 pin printers 539
• The width is calculated based on the width of proportional 10 point 10 point characters using the following formula 539
• The width of proportional characters during multipoint mode varies depending on your selected point size 539
• The widths listed are in 1 360 inch units for example the width of the letter w during proportional spacing is 42 360 inch 539
• Pin proportional width tables 544
• The tables in this section list the widths for all proportional characters on 9 pin printers 544
• The widths listed are in 1 120 inch units for example the width of an italic letter w during proportional spacing is 12 120 inch 544
• Ascii code table 548
• Codes in shaded boxes are printer control codes 548
• Epson printers feature an industry standard centronics parallel type interface the printer side of this interface utilizes a 36 pin connector the pin assignments for this connector are as follows 549
• Parallel interface 549
• Pins and signals 549
• All interface conditions are based on ttl level both the rise and the fall times of each signal must be less then 0 microseconds 550
• Data tranfer must be carried out by observing the acknlg or busy signal data transfer to this printer can be carried out only after receipt of the acknlg signal or when the level of the busy signal is low 550
• Note the values may vary from printer to printer see the user s guide of your printer 550
• Pins and signals continued 550
• Return denotes the twisted pair return to be connected at signal ground level for the interface wiring be sure to use a twisted pair cable for each signal and to complete the connection on the return side to prevent noise these cables should be shielded and connected to either the chassis of the host computer or the printer but not at both ends 550
• The column heading direction refers to the direction of signal flow as viewed from the printer 550

• Connector pin assignment 554
• Data format 1 start bit data word length 7 or 8 bits odd even or no parity 1 stop bit 554
• Error handling when a parity error is detected the received byte is changed to the character code overrun errors and framing errors are ignored 554
• Etx ack nak d at the time the printer receives an etx 03h command if the available buffer space is more than 256 bytes the printer sends an ack 06h code in reply or if the available buffer space is less than 256 bytes the printer sends nak 15h and d 64h codes continuously the etx ack handshaking protocol can be enabled or disabled altering the default settings 554
• Handshaking dtr signal and xon xoff the dtr signal is mark and an xoff code dc3 13h is transmitted when the available input buffer space drops to 256 bytes the dtr signal is space and an xon dc1 11h is transmitted when the available input buffer space returns to 256 bytes 554
