Installing and Relocating your Printer

CAUTION

Do not place the printer in a hot, humid, dusty, or poorly ventilated environment. Prolonged exposure to such adverse conditions can cause fire or electric shocks.

Do not place the printer near heaters or volatile, flammable, or combustible materials, such as curtains.

Place the printer on a level, sturdy surface that can withstand the printer's weight. Failure to do so could cause the printer to fall, resulting in injuries.

To prevent injuries, use two people when you lift this printer.

To lift the printer, face the front of the printer and grip the recessed areas at the bottom left and right with both hands. Never try to lift the printer by gripping any other areas. Lifting the printer by gripping other areas can cause the printer to fall, resulting in injuries.

When lifting the printer, get a firm footing and bend your knees to avoid possible injuries to your back.

Do not move the printer by lifting it by the front and back edges (positions shown in the following illustration) when the paper tray is extended (loaded with Legal 14 paper). The printer may fall and result in injuries or the paper tray may be damaged.

The printer has ventilation grilles on the side and at the back of the machine. Ensure that the printer is installed no less than 300mm (11.7 in.) from the wall on the right, 200mm (7.8 in.) from the wall on the left, and 255mm (9.9 in.) from the wall at the back. A poorly ventilated printer can cause excessive internal heat to build up and result in fire. The illustration below shows the minimum clearances required for normal operation, consumables replacement, and maintenance ensuring that your printer operates at peak performance.

When moving the printer, be sure to unplug the power cord from the AC power outlet/socket. Moving the printer with the power cord connected can damage the power cord, which could result in a fire or an electric shock.

Operating Environment

Use the printer in a place that meets the following requirements:

Ambient temperature range of 10 to 32^ (50.0 to 89.6^ ), relative humidity of 15 to 85% (no condensation)

When using the printer at an ambient temperature of 32^ ( 89.6^ ), the relative humidity should not exceed 65% . When the relative humidity reaches 85% , the ambient temperature should not exceed 28^ ( 82.4^ ).

■Do not place the printer in a room where there are sudden fluctuations in temperature and do not move the printer from a cold place to a warm humid place. If you do, condensation may occur inside the printer and deteriorate print quality.
■Do not place the printer in direct sunlight, as this may damage the printer.

WARNING

Use the printer within the specified power range.

AC power:100-127 V AC ± 10% (90 V-140 V) or 220-240 V AC ± 10% (198 V-264 V)

Frequency: 50 ± 3 ~Hz / 60 ± 3 ~Hz

Ensure that the AC power cord connector and AC power outlet/rod are free of dust. In a damp environment, a contaminated connector can, over time, draw non-negligible amounts of current that can generate heat and eventually cause fire.

Do not attempt to modify, pull, bend, chafe, or otherwise damage the AC power cord. Do not place objects on the AC power cord. A damaged AC power cord can cause fire or electric shock.

Never touch the AC power cord with wet hands. This constitutes an electric shock hazard.

In the following situations, stop using the printer immediately, turn it off, and disconnect the AC power cord from the AC power outlet/socket. After that, call your dealer or Brother Customer Service immediately. Continued use of the printer in such situations could result in fire:

There is smoke emanating from the printer or the outside of the printer is excessively hot.
Unusual noises are coming from the printer.
There is water inside the printer.

To prevent fire or electric shocks, connect the AC power cord to a grounded/earthed AC power outlet/socket. For your safety, if in any doubt about the effective grounding/earthing of the power, call a qualified electrician.

If the power cord is broken or insulated wires are exposed, stop using the printer immediately, turn it off, and disconnect the AC power cord from the AC power outlet/rod. After that, call your dealer or Brother Customer Service. Using a damaged cord can cause fire or an electric shock.

CAUTION

Do not plug or unplug the printer when it is on. Unplugging a live connector can deform the plug and cause fire.

When unplugging the printer, grasp the plug instead of the power cord. Forcibly pulling the AC power cord can damage it and cause a fire or an electric shock.

Be sure to turn off and unplug the printer before accessing the interior of the printer for cleaning, maintenance, or troubleshooting. Accessing the interior of a live printer can result in electric shock.

Do not use conductive paper, e.g. carbonic paper and coated paper. When paper jam occurs, they can cause a short circuit and fire.

Once a month, turn off the printer and check the AC power cord for the following.

The AC power cord is plugged firmly into the AC power outlet.
The plug is not excessively heated, rusted, or bent.
The plug and outlet are dust free.
The cord is not cracked or frayed.
■If you notice any unusual conditions, call your dealer or Brother Customer Service for assistance.

When the printer is not used over an extended period of time, it is advisable to unplug the printer.

Switch off the printer before connecting the interface cable or options. Connecting the interface cable or options to a live printer can cause electric shocks.

Radio Interference

This printer may interfere with radio or television reception, causing flickering or distortion. This can be determined by turning the printer off and on. To correct interference, perform one or a combination of the following procedures:

Move the printer away from a TV and/or radio.
■ Reposition the printer, TV and/or radio.
If the printer, TV and/or radio are plugged to the same AC power outlet/shipment, unplug them, then plug them into different AC power outlets/sockets.
- Reposition the TV and/or radio antennas and cables until the interference stops. For external antennas, call your local electrician.
Use coaxial cables with radio and television antennas.

Operating Precautions

WARNING

Do not place any liquid containers such as vases or coffee cups on the printer. Liquids spilt on the printer can cause a fire or electric shock.

Do not place any metal parts such as staples or clips on the printer. If metal or flammable materials get into the printer, they can short circuit internal components and cause a fire or electric shocks.

If debris (metal or liquid) gets into the printer, turn off and unplug the printer. After that, call your dealer or Brother Customer Service immediately. Operating a debris-contaminated printer can cause a fire or electric shocks.

Never open or remove printer covers that are secured with screws unless specifically instructed to do so in the this guide. High-voltage components can cause electric shocks.

Do not try to alter the printer's structure or modify any parts. Unauthorized modifications can cause fire.

This printer complies with the IEC60825 (Class 1) international laser standard. This means that the printer does not present any risk of injury to individuals from laser radiation. Various covers confine the laser radiation to the inside of the printer; hence, users cannot incur injury from the laser under normal operating conditions. Removing covers, unless instructed to do so in this guide, can cause injury from laser radiation.

CAUTION

Never touch an area indicated by a high-temperature warning label (on or near the fuser unit). Touching these areas may result in burns.

If a sheet of paper is wrapped around the fuser or rollers, do not use excessive force to remove it so as to avoid injuries or burns. Turn off the printer immediately and call your dealer or Brother Customer Service.

Do not place any heavy objects on the printer. An off-balance printer can fall over or the heavy object can fall, resulting in injuries.

Do not use highly flammable sprays or solvents in or around the printer, as this can result in fire.

When removing paper jams, make sure that no pieces of paper are left inside the printer, as this can cause fire.

If the paper is wrapped around the fuser or roller, or you cannot see the jam that you are trying to clear, do not attempt to remove the paper by yourself, as this may result in injuries or burns. Turn off the printer immediately and call your dealer or Brother Customer Service.

Do not place magnetic objects near the safety switch of the printer. Magnets can activate the printer accidentally, resulting in injuries.

Other Difficulties

Refer to this guide for procedures on clearing paper jams and how to resolve any other problems that may occur.

WARNING

Never put a toner cartridge into a naked/open flame. It can explode, resulting in injuries.

Never put a transfer roll cartridge into a naked/open flame. It can explode, resulting in injuries.

Never heat the drum or scratch its surface. A heated or scratched drum can be hazardous to your health.

Do not use a vacuum cleaner for cleaning any spilled toner. Use a cloth soaked with soapy water to wipe it out. The vacuumed toner may cause a fire in the cleaner due to its electrical sparks.

CAUTION

• Do not open consumables until you are ready to use them. Do not store consumables in the following conditions:

Hot or humid areas
Near a naked/open flame
Exposed to direct sunlight
Dusty areas
Before using consumables, read the instructions and precautions provided with the consumables.

Types of envelopes to avoid

Do not use envelopes:

that are damaged, curled, wrinkled, or an unusual shape
that are extremely shiny or textured
with clasps, snaps or tie strings
with self-adhesive closures
that are of baggy construction
that are not sharply creased
that are embossed (have raised writing on them)
that were previously printed by a laser printer
that are pre-printed on the inside
that cannot be arranged when put in a pile
that are made of paper that weighs more than the paper weight specifications for the printer
that have been badly made, with edges that are not straight or consistently square or
with windows, holes, cutouts or perforations.

IF YOU USE ANY OF THE TYPES OF ENVELOPES LISTED ABOVE, THEY MAY DAMAGE YOUR PRINTER. THIS DAMAGE IS NOT COVERED UNDER ANY BROTHER WARRANTY OR SERVICE AGREEMENT.

Before you print envelopes, you must 'fan' the stack to avoid paper jams and misfeeds.

• Do not load different types of envelope at the same time in the paper tray because it may cause paper jams or misfeeds.
• Do not print envelopes using duplex printing.
  For proper printing, you must choose the same paper size from your software application as the paper in the tray.

Take care when selecting the settings for envelopes, because choosing them incorrectly may result in printing on the wrong side or in the wrong direction.

Open the envelope flaps before feeding and load as illustrated below. You can use Com-10, Monarch, C5 and DL envelopes.

• Do not use envelopes with tape seals. Printing on some types of pre-glued envelopes may not be possible, depending on the condition of the adhesive. We recommend using envelopes designed for laser printers.
• Do not use paper larger than 215.9 ~mm (8.5 in.) wide and 355.6 ~mm (14.0 in.) long.

Using poor-quality envelopes can cause creasing and deteriorate print quality.

The following is an example of how to print the address on an envelope.

• Do not put the punched holes near the actuator (paper sensor).
• Do not use organizer sheets that are stuck together. The glue that is used might damage the printer.
• Do not load different types of paper at the same time in the paper tray because it may cause paper jams or misfeeds (except for transparencies) (See Printing on Transparencies from the Paper Tray on page 2-23).
  For proper printing, you must choose the same paper size from your software application as the paper in the tray.
  If your application software does not allow you to select the paper size in its PRINT menu, you can use the control panel Menu buttons to go to the PAPER menu to change the paper size. For more information, see PAPER on page 4-13.

Use transparencies that are designed for use in laser printers and for black and white printing only.

Transparencies for full-color printing cannot be loaded. Using unsuitable transparencies may lead to a printer malfunction.
If the output transparencies are allowed to stack up in the center output tray, paper jams may occur due to static electricity. Remove the transparencies from the tray as soon as they exit the printer.

Follow the steps below to load transparencies into any of the paper trays.

(Paper tray 1 is shown in the illustrations.)

1 Place the paper tray on a flat surface.

2 Remove the lid of the tray.

3 If the base plate of the paper tray is raised, push it down.

4 Squeeze the length guide and slide it to fit the paper size.

5 Squeeze the right width guide and slide it to fit the paper size.

6 Fan the paper well in small amounts.

7 Load the paper with the side to be printed on facing up and with all 4 corners aligned.

Transparencies for color printing may cause jams or fuser malfunctions. Do not use them.
- Do not load paper exceeding the maximum capacity allowed.

8 Replace the lid of the paper tray.

The lid of the tray must be firmly seated. If not, the paper might be misaligned.

9 Push the paper tray completely into the printer.

Printing on Transparency from the Paper Tray

When printing on transparencies or specialty paper, make sure that you select the type of paper and image quality before sending the print command.

Use only transparencies that are designed for use with laser printers and for black and white printing.
Use only the recommended type of transparencies (See Special paper on page 2-4). Do not use any other type, such as color transparencies (bordered with a white frame).
Using unsuitable transparencies can cause damage to the printer.
- Do not use transparencies bordered with a white frame.
- Remove each transparency sheet from the face down output tray as soon as it is printed. When transparencies are allowed to accumulate in the face down output tray, static electricity can build up and cause jams.

Transparencies can be fed from trays 1, 2, 3 and 4. When feeding transparencies from trays 1, 2, 3 and 4, load plain paper to about 30mm (about 1.2 in.) in height in the tray first, and then load transparencies on top of the plain paper up to the maximum fill line. In this case, up to 100 sheets of transparencies can be loaded.

1 Start printing from your program after loading the transparencies in the printer.

Select a paper tray.

Select the Transparency.

Select the Paper Size.

1 Push the back lever up.

2 Put the paper in paper tray.

When you have completed printing to the face-up output tray, push the back lever down.

Web Browser Management

Many Brother printers support Embedded Web Server (EWS) technology. This means that you can use a standard web browser to manage many aspects of the printer; for example, you can view consumable life, configure network parameters, view serial number information, printer usage, and so on. Start your web browser and enter the NetBIOS name, DNS name or IP address of the printer.

BRAdmin Professional

The BRAdmin Professional utility is designed to manage your Brother network connected devices, such as our network ready printers and multifunction centers. BRAdmin Professional can also manage other manufacturers' products that support SNMP (Simple Network Management Protocol).

Driver Deployment Wizard

This installer includes the Windows® PCL driver and Brother network port driver (LPR and NetBIOS). The administrator should set up the IP address, Gateway and Subnet with BRAdmin Professional before using this software.

If the administrator then installs the printer driver and port driver using this software, he can save the file to the File server or send the file in E-mail to users. Then, each user just clicks that file to have the printer driver, port driver, IP address, and so on, automatically copied to their PC.

Web BRAdmin

The Web BRAdmin software is designed to manage all LAN/WAN Brother network connected devices. By installing the Web BRAdmin server software on a computer running IIS*, Administrators with a Web browser can connect to the Web BRAdmin server, which then communicates with the device itself. Unlike the BRAdmin Professional utility - which is designed for Windows® systems only - the Web BRAdmin server software can be accessed from any client computer with a web browser that supports Java 2. You can download the Web BRAdmin software from our web site at http://solutions.brother.com/webbradmin.

You can use this function to reprint PROOF data that has just been printed and has no security settings. Documents that are placed in the PROOF area are available to anyone. You might use this function for a document that will be moved to a public folder at a later date.

When the area to spool data is full, the earliest data is automatically deleted first. The order of deleting data is not connected to the order of reprinting.

When you reprint PROOF data, please see How to print SECURE data on page 4-7.

If you have not installed the CompactFlash, the reprint data will be deleted when the printer is turned off.
If there is data in the job information that cannot be displayed on the LCD, the display shows '?'
For more information about the settings in the printer driver, see Job Spooling on page 3-5.

Printing PUBLIC data

You can use this function to reprint documents that are stored in a PUBLIC area of the printer memory. Documents here will not be protected by a password and anyone can access them using the front panel or a web browser. The printer will not print a PUBLIC document when you send it to the printer. You must use the control panel of the printer or connect to the printer through a web browser.

PUBLIC data can be deleted using the control panel of the printer or from the web-based management software.

If there is data in the job information that cannot be displayed on the LCD, the display shows '?'
For more information about the settings in the printer driver, see Job Spooling on page 3-5.

Printing SECURE data

SECURE documents are protected by a password and only those people who know the password will be able to print the document. The printer will not print the document when you send it for printing. To print the document you must use the control panel of the printer (with the password) or connect to the printer using a web browser.

If you want to delete the spooled data, you can carry out this operation using the control panel or the web-based management software.

If there is data in the job information that cannot be displayed on the LCD, the display shows '?'

To cancel the reprint job

Pressing the Job Cancel button allows you to cancel the current reprint job. The Job Cancel button also allows you to cancel a paused reprint job.

Menu Button

Pressing the Menu button while in a non-menu setting mode puts the printer off-line and displays the Top Menu. The Menu button is provided only for the purpose of displaying the Top Menu. It does not perform any other operation. The printer automatically exits the menu if no operation is performed for 30 seconds.

LED Indicators

The LED indicators are lights that show the printer's status.

Alarm LED - Red

This LED lights to indicate that the printer has detected some type of problem (operator call, error, service error).

LED Status	Meaning
On	Alarm state (error)
Off	Normal state (no error)

LED Status	Meaning
Off	Printer is turned off. Printer is off-line. ■ Menu selection being performed ■ Number of reprint copies being set ■ PAUSE state ■ Alarm state
Blinking	Printer is receiving data from computer or processing data.
On	Printer is on-line and ready for printing. ■ READY/WARMING UP state ■ SLEEP state ■ PRINTING state (including reprint) ■ JOB CANCEL state Incomplete data* is present. In this case, Data exists is displayed in the top line of the LCD. * Data that is in the process of being created exists, and no data is being received.

If the printer goes off-line while data is being received or processed (such as when the menu is displayed or an error occurs), data display is still given priority.

Liquid Crystal Display (LCD)

The display shows the current printer status. When you use the control panel buttons, the display will change.

If you take the printer off-line, the display changes to show the emulation you have chosen.

If there are any problems, the display shows the appropriate error message, maintenance message or call service message so you will know that you need to take action. For more information about these messages, see What to Do When an Error Message Appears on page 5-15.

About emulation modes

This printer has the following emulation modes.

HP LaserJet Mode

The HP LaserJet mode (or HP mode) is the emulation mode in which this printer supports the PCL6 language of the Hewlett-Packard LaserJet laser printer. Many software applications support this type of laser printer. Using this mode will allow your printer to operate at its best with those applications.

BR-Script 3 Mode

BR-Script is an original Brother page description language and a PostScript® language emulation interpreter. This printer supports level 3. The BR-Script interpreter of this printer allows you to control text and graphics on pages.

For technical information about PostScript commands, see the following manuals:

Adobe Systems Incorporated. PostScript Language Reference Manual, 3rd Edition. Menlo Park: Addison-Wesley Publishing Company, Inc., 1999.
Adobe Systems Incorporated. PostScript Language Program Design. Menlo Park: Addison-Wesley Publishing Company, Inc., 1988.

Adobe Systems Incorporated. PostScript Language Reference Manual, third Edition. Addison-Wesley Longman, Inc., 1999.

HP-GL Mode

The HP-GL mode is the emulation mode in which this printer supports the HP-GL language of the Hewlett-Packard plotter model HP-7475A. Many graphics and CAD applications support this type of plotter. Use this mode so your printer will work when printing from those types of applications.

EPSON FX-850 and IBM Proprinter XL Mode

The EPSON FX-850 and IBM Proprinter XL modes are the emulation modes that this printer supports to meet the industry-standard for dot matrix printers. Some applications support these dot matrix printer emulations. Use these emulation modes so your printer will work well when printing from those types of applications.

List of factory settings

The following table shows the factory settings. To reset the printer's network settings, see Network Factory Default Setting on page 3-18.

The emulation mode affects the setting. Effective modes are shown in brackets in the following table.
The following settings can not be restored to the factory settings with the reset menu in the factory settings mode interface mode, HRC setting, page protection, scalable font, lock panel, page counter and local language for display messages.
The copy setting is always restored to the factory setting when the printer is turned off and on again.

Paper Handling Problems

First, make sure that you are using paper that meets our recommended paper specifications. See Suitable and Unsuitable Paper Types on page 2-1.

Symptom	Action
The printer does not load paper.	■ If paper is in the paper tray, make sure it is straight. If the paper is curled, you should straighten it before printing. Sometimes it is helpful to remove the paper, turn the stack over, and then put it back in the paper tray.■ Reduce the amount of paper in the paper tray, and then try again.■ Make sure that manual feed mode is not set in the printer driver.■ Fan the paper well and put it back in firmly.■ Wipe the rubber parts of the feed roller with a damp, soft cloth. (See Cleaning the Feeder Roller on page 6-17.) If this does not correct the problem, the feed roller needs to be replaced. Please call your dealer or Brother Customer Service for a replacement.
There is a paper jam.	■ Clear the jammed paper (see Clearing Paper Jams on page 5-17).■ Wipe the rubber parts of the feed roller with a damp, soft cloth. (See Cleaning the Feeder Roller on page 6-17.) If this does not correct the problem, the feed roller needs to be replaced. Please call your dealer or Brother Customer Service for a replacement.
The printed pages are curled, so the face-down output tray cannot hold the maximum number of sheets.	■ Turn over the paper in the paper tray.■ Change the printer driver setting in Media Type to a thicker setting.
The printer does not print.	■ Make sure that the cable is connected to the printer.■ Make sure that you have chosen the appropriate printer driver.
When printing on normal paper, it creases.	■ Change the printer driver setting in Media to the Thin paper setting.

Solving Print Problems

Symptom	Action
The printer prints unexpectedly or it prints garbage data.	Make sure the printer cable is not too long. We recommend that you use a parallel cable that is less than 2 metres (6 feet) long. Make sure that the printer cable is not damaged or broken. If you are using an interface-switching device, remove it. Connect your computer directly to your printer, and then try again. Check that you have chosen the appropriate printer driver with 'Set as default'. Make sure that the printer is not connected to the same port that is also connected to a storage device or scanner. Take away all other devices and connect the port only to the printer. Turn off Printer Status reporting in the Device Options tab in the printer driver.
The printer cannot print full pages of a document.	Press the Go button to print the data that is left in the printer. If the Go button does not clear the error, reduce the complexity of your document or reduce the print resolution. Change the following settings in the supplied Windows® driver, and then try again. The best combination of the settings below will vary depending on your document. ■ Graphics mode ■ TrueType™ mode ■ Use printer TrueType™ fonts
The printer cannot print full pages of a document. An error message MEMORY FULL appears.	Press the Go button to print the data that is left in the printer. Reduce the print resolution or reduce the complexity of your document. Expand the printer memory by adding a DIMM. See Memory expansion on page 2-26.
The headers or footers appear when I view my document on the screen but they do not show up when I print it.	Most laser printers have a restricted area that cannot be printed on. This 'unprintable area' is usually the first two lines and the last two lines of a page (leaving 62 printable lines). Adjust the top and bottom margins of your document to allow for this.

Others Problems

Symptom	Action
The printer cannot print at all. Your PC shows the following error message: ‘There was an error writing to LPT1: (or BRUSB) for the printer.’	■ Check that the printer cable is not damaged or broken. ■ If you are using an interface-switching device, remove it. Connect your computer directly to your printer, and then try again. Check that you have chosen the appropriate printer driver and ‘Set as default’.

Quick Reference for Commands

Bar Code Control

The printer can print bar codes in the HP LaserJet, EPSON

FX-850, and IBM Proprinter XL emulation modes.

Print bar codes or expanded characters

Code ESC i

Dec 27 105

Hex 1B69

Format: ESC i n ... n\

Creates bar codes or expanded characters according to the segment of parameters "n ... n". For more information about parameters, see the following Definition of Parameters. This command must end with the "\" code (5CH).

Definition of Parameters

This bar code command can have the following parameters in the parameter segment (n ... n). As parameters are effective within the single command syntax ESC i n ... n \, they don't apply in the bar code commands. If certain parameters are not given, they take the preset settings. The last parameter must be the bar code data start ('b' or 'B') or the expanded character data start ('l' or 'L'). Other parameters can be given in any sequence. Each parameter can start with a lower-case or upper-case character, for example, 't0' or 'T0', 's3' or 'S3' and so one.

Bar code mode

n = t0' or 'T0 CODE 39 (default)

n = 't1' or 'T1 Interleaved 2 of 5

n = 't3' or 'T3' FIM (US-Post Net)

n = 't4' or 'T4' Post Net (US-Post Net)

n = 't5' or 'T5 EAN 8, EAN 13, or UPC A

n = 't6' or 'T6' UPC E

n = 't9' or 'T9 Codabar

n = 't12' or 'T12 Code 128 set A

n = 't13' or 'T13 Code 128 set B

n = 't14' or 'T14 Code 128 set C

n = 't130' or 'T130 ISBN (EAN)

n = 't131' or 'T131 ISBN (UPC-E)

n = 't132' or 'T132 EAN 128 set A

n = 't133' or 'T133 EAN 128 set B

n = 't134' or 'T134 EAN 128 set C

This parameter selects the bar code mode as shown above. When n is 't5' or 'T5' the bar code mode (EAN 8, EAN 13, or UPC A) varies according to the number of characters in the data.

Bar Code, expanded character, line block drawing and box drawing

$$ n = ^ {\prime} s 0 ^ {\prime} \text {o r} ^ {\prime} S 0 \quad 3: 1 (d e f a u l t) $$

$$ n = ^ {\prime} s 1 ^ {\prime} \text {o r} ^ {\prime} S 1 \quad 2: 1 $$

$$ n = ^ {\prime} s 3 ^ {\prime} \text {o r} ^ {\prime} S 3 \quad 2. 5: 1 $$

This parameter selects the bar code style as above. When the EAN 8, EAN 13, UPC-A, Code 128 or EAN 128 bar code mode is selected, this bar code style parameter is ignored.

Expanded Character

'S'
0 = White
1 = Black
2 = Vertical stripes
3 = Horizontal stripes
4 = Cross hatch

For example 'S' n1 n2

n1 = Background fill pattern

n2 = Foreground fill pattern

If 'S' is followed by only one parameter, the parameter is a foreground fill pattern.

Line block drawing & box drawing

"S"

1 = Black
2 = Vertical stripes
3 = Horizontal stripes
4 = Cross hatch

Bar Code

$$ n = ^ {\prime} m n n n ^ {\prime} \text {o r} ^ {\prime} M n n n ^ {\prime} (n n n = 0 \sim 3 2 7 6 7) $$

This parameter shows the bar code width. The unit of 'nnn' is a percentage.

Bar code human readable line ON or OFF

$$ n = ^ {\prime} r 0 ^ {\prime} \text {o r} ^ {\prime} R 0 \quad H u m a n \text {r e a d a b l e l i n e O F F} $$

$$ n = ^ {\prime} r 1 ^ {\prime} \text {o r} ^ {\prime} R 1 \quad H u m a n \quad r e a d a b l e \quad l i n e \quad O N $$

Preset: Human readable line ON

(1) 'T5' or 't5'
(2) 'T6' or 't6'
(3) 'T130' or 't130'
(4) 'T131' or 't131'

Preset: Human readable line OFF All others

This parameter shows whether or not the printer prints the human readable line below the bar code. Human readable characters are always printed with OCR-B font of 10 pitch and all the current character style enhancements are masked. The factory setting is determined by the bar code mode selected by 't' or 'T'.

Quiet zone

$$ n = ^ {\prime} o n n n ^ {\prime} o r ^ {\prime} O n n n ^ {\prime} (n n n = 0 \sim 3 2 7 6 7) $$

Quiet zone is the space on both sides of the bar codes. Its width can be shown using the units that are set by the 'u' of 'U' parameter. (For the description of 'u' or 'U' parameter, see the next section.) The factory setting of the quiet-zone width is 1 inch.

Bar code, expanded character unit, line block drawing and box drawing

$$ n = ^ {\prime} u 0 ^ {\prime} \text {o r} ^ {\prime} U 0 m m (p r e s e t) $$

$$ n = ^ {\prime} u 1 ^ {\prime} \text {o r} ^ {\prime} U 1 \quad 1 / 1 0 $$

$$ n = ^ {\prime} u 2 ^ {\prime} \text {o r} ^ {\prime} U 2 \quad 1 / 1 0 0 $$

$$ n = ^ {\prime} u 3 ^ {\prime} \text {o r} ^ {\prime} U 3 \quad 1 / 1 2 $$

$$ n = ^ {\prime} u 4 ^ {\prime} \text {o r} ^ {\prime} U 4 \quad 1 / 1 2 0 $$

$$ n = ^ {\prime} u 5 ^ {\prime} \text {o r} ^ {\prime} U 5 \quad 1 / 1 0 m m $$

$$ n = ^ {\prime} u 6 ^ {\prime} \text {o r} ^ {\prime} U 6 \quad 1 / 3 0 0 $$

$$ n = ^ {\prime} u 7 ^ {\prime} \text {o r} ^ {\prime} U 7 \quad 1 / 7 2 0 $$

This parameter shows the measurement units of X-axis offset, Y-axis offset, and bar code height.

Bar code, expanded character, line block drawing and box drawing offset in X-axis

$$ n = ^ {\prime} x n n n ^ {\prime} \text {o r} ^ {\prime} X n n n ^ {\prime} $$

This parameter shows the offset from the left margin in the 'u'- or 'U'-specified unit.

Bar code & expanded character offset in Y-axis

$$ n = ^ {\prime} y n n n ^ {\prime} \text {o r} ^ {\prime} Y n n n ^ {\prime} $$

This parameter shows the downward offset from the current print position in the 'u'- or 'U'-specified unit.

Bar code, expanded character, line block drawing and box drawing height

n = 'hnnn', 'Hnnn', 'dnnn', or 'Dnnn'

(1) EAN13, EAN8, UPC-A, ISBN (EAN13, EAN8, UPC-A),

ISBN (UPC-E): 22 mm

(2) UPC-E: 18 mm
(3) Others: 12 mm

Expanded characters 2.2 mm (preset)

Line block drawing and box drawing 1 dot

This parameter shows the height of bar codes or expanded characters as shown above. It can start with 'h', 'H', 'd', or 'D'. The height of bar codes is shown in the 'u'- or 'U'-specified unit. The factory setting of the bar code height (12 mm, 18 mm or 22 mm) is determined by the bar code mode selected by 't' or 'T'.

Expanded character width, line block drawing and box drawing

n = 'wnnn' or 'Wnnn'

Expanded character 1.2 ~mm

Line block drawing and box drawing 1 dot

This parameter shows the width of expanded characters as shown above.

Expanded character rotation

n = 'a0' or 'A1' 'Upright (preset)

n = 'a1' or 'A1' 'Rotated 90 degrees

n = 'a2' or 'A2 'Upside down, rotated 180 degrees

n = 'a3' or 'A3' Rotated 270 degrees

Bar code data start

$$ n = ^ {\prime \prime} b ^ {\prime \prime} o r ^ {\prime \prime} B ^ {\prime \prime} $$

Data that follows 'b' or 'B' is read in as bar code data. Bar code data must end with the '\code (5CH), which also ends this command. The acceptable bar code data is determined by the bar code mode selected by 't' or 'T'.

When CODE 39 is selected with the parameter 't0' or 'T0'

Forty three characters '0' to '9', 'A' to 'Z', '-', '.', '(space)', '$', '/',+'', and '%' can be accepted as bar code data. Other characters will cause a data error. The number of characters for bar codes is not limited. The bar code data automatically starts and ends with an asterisk ''(start character and stop character). If the received data has an asterisk' at the beginning or end, the asterisk is regarded as a start character or stop character.

When Interleaved 2 of 5 is selected with the parameter 't1' or 'T1':

Ten numerical characters '0' to '9' can be accepted as bar code data. Other characters cause a data error. The number of characters for bar codes is not limited. Because this mode of bar codes needs even characters, if the bar code data has odd characters, '0' is automatically added to the end of the bar code data.

When FIM (US-Post Net) is selected with the parameter 't3' or 'T3'

Characters 'A' to 'D' are valid and one digit of data can be printed. Upper-case and lower-case alphabet characters can be accepted.

When Post Net (US-Post Net) is selected with the parameter 't4' or 'T4'

Numbers '0' to '9' can be data and it must end with a check digit. '?' can be used instead of the check digit.

When EAN 8, EAN 13, or UPC A is selected with the parameter 't5' or 'T5'

Ten numbers '0' to '9' can be accepted as bar code data. The number of characters for bar codes is limited as follows:

EAN 8: Total 8 digits (7 digits + 1 check digit)

EAN 13: Total 13 digits (12 digits + 1 check digit)

UPCA: Total 12 digits (11 digits + 1 check digit)

A number of characters other than above will cause data error that results in the bar code data being printed as normal print data. If the check digit is not correct, the printer calculates the correct check digit automatically so that the correct bar code data will be printed. When EAN13 is selected, adding +' and a two-digit or five-digit number after the data can create an add-on code.

When UPC-E is selected with the parameter "t6" or "T6":

The numbers '0' to '9' can be accepted as bar code data.

1 Eight digits (standard format) The first character must be '0' and the data must end with a check digit. Total eight digits = '0' plus 6 digits plus 1 check digit.

2 Six digits The first character and the last check digit are removed from the eight digit data.

1: For eight digits, '?' can be used instead of a check digit.

2: Adding "+" and two-digit or five-digit number after the data creates an add-on code for all six and eight digit formats.

When Codebar is chosen with the parameter 't9' or 'T9'

Characters '0' to '9', '-', '.', $$, '/',+'', ':' can be printed. Characters 'A' to 'D' can be printed as a start-stop code, which can be upper case or lower case. If there is no start-stop code, errors will happen. A check digit cannot be added and using？」 causes errors.

When Code 128 Set A, Set B, or Set C is selected with the parameter 't12' or 'T12,' 't13' or 'T13,' or 't14' or 'T14'

Code 128 sets A, B and C can be individually selected. Set A indicates characters Hex 00 to 5F. Set B includes characters Hex 20 to 7F. Set C includes the pairs 00 to 99. Switching is allowed between the code sets by sending %A, %B, or %C. FNC 1, 2, 3, and 4 are produced with %1, %2, %3, and %4. The SHIFT code, %S, allows temporary switching (for one character only) from set A to set B and vice versa. The '%' character can be encoded by sending it twice.

When ISBN (EAN) is selected with the parameter 't130' or 'T130'

The same rules apply as for 't5' or 'T5'.

When ISBN (UPC-E) is selected with the parameter 't131' or 'T131':

The same rules apply as for 't6' or 'T6'.

When EAN 128 set A, set B or set C is selected with the parameter 't132' or 'T132', 't133' or 'T133' or 't134' or 'T134'

The same rules apply as for 't12' or 'T12', 't13' or 'T13', or 't14' or 'T14'.

Box drawing

ESC i ... E (or e)

'E' or 'e' is a terminator.

Line block drawing

ESC i ... V (or v)

'V' or 'v' is a terminator.

Expanded character data start

n = 'I' or 'L'

Data that follows 'I' or 'L' is read as expanded character data (or labeling data). Expanded character data must end with the '\code(5CH)), which also ends this command.
