CHAPTER 1 - INTRODUCTION This manual describes the software interfaces supported by your FormsPro 4000 series printer. It is written for a programmer who will be developing software for the printer, and contains information not normally needed by a printer operator/user. Basic information on printer operation (setting the printer up, loading paper, replacing ribbons, etc.) can be found in the "Operator's Manual" that accompanied your printer. How to Use This Manual Below is a brief description

Introduction Printer Model Descriptions and Key Features The Printek FormsPro 4000 Series Printers are high speed, heavy duty serial dot matrix printers designed especially for printing upon hard to print forms which are often not printed adequately by other printers. Of course, the FormsPro 4000 series printers will also print on lighter forms. All printers provide straight paper paths for jam free paper motion and a zero waste tear bar for demand document applications. The operator may perman

Introduction Selecting Emulations The software interface of the printer varies, depending upon which emulation is selected. The default emulation, selected at power up, is specified by the "Mode:" value in the "Setup: INTERFACE" menu. Frequently, the desired emulation is specified here, and never changed again. It is also possible to switch back and forth between various emulations in order to use the unique features of each. A different emulation may be selected via software with the ESC ESC

ANSI X3.64 EMULATION Introduction This section describes the control codes and escape sequences comprising ANSI X3.64 emulation. This emulation may be selected by specifying "Mode: ANSI X3.64" in the "Setup: INTERFACE" menu, or via software with the ESC ESC 1 sequence. While this emulation is selected, control codes and escape sequences from other emulations are not available. Control codes and escape sequences are used to control printer operation. An ASCII control code is a single character

ANSI X3.64 Emulation The "f" at the end of the escape sequence represents the final character. It terminates the sequence, and specifies the function to be performed. Spaces are used when documenting escape sequences to increase readability. The spaces within the sequences are for readability only; they are not part of the sequences themselves. Characters that appear in italics (such as "n" and "f" above) are not sent to the printer as is; they are used as a place holder indicating that some

ANSI X3.64 Emulation Control Codes and Escape Sequences Grouped by Function Communications End of Text ETX If "ETX/ACK: On" is specified in the "Setup: INTERFACE" menu, then receipt of an ETX causes the printer to transmit an ACK to the host computer. Since the ETX may be a legal value within an escape sequence, it is the user's responsibility to ensure that an ETX used for data handshake is not sent within an escape sequence. The user must also ensure that the maximum block size or the number

ANSI X3.64 Emulation Character Size and Line Spacing Set Character and Line Spacing ESC [ n1 ; n2 SP G Sets the character and line spacing in decipoints (1/720 of an inch). The first parameter, n1, sets the line spacing. The second parameter, n2, sets the character spacing. Typical values for n1 and supported values for n2 are shown below. Other values for n2 will be ignored. To change only the horizontal or only the vertical spacing, omit the other value from the sequence or set it to zero
