No set command characters

Command characters are characters that are commands for specifying the logo number to print with

Auto Logo printing.

If the “/” is specified for the command character, “/2/3” is embedded in the print data.

The printer processes “/” not as character data but as a command, stores the number continuing af-

ter, and prints as an Auto Logo in the stored order.

Therefore, if “/2/3/” is embedded, the Auto Logo is printed in the order of logo 2, logo 3.

At that time, if the specified logo is not registered, logo printing is ignored.

If the setting is for not command character setting, no logo will be printed.

Note that “/2/3” is processed as a command so there is no print.

However, “/2/3/” is converted to a space by the ESC GS /5 n command.

Also, only the initial logo is printed if the same logo is duplicated, such as in “/2/3/2/2.”

32 logos can be stored as Auto Logos.

Continuing the command character, the following shows the defined area of the character d of the

logo number specification.

“1” ≤ d ≤ “9” (49 ≤ d ≤ 57) → Logo number 1 to 9

“A” ≤ d ≤ “F”

(65 ≤ d ≤ 70) → Logo number 10 to 16
