ESC i n1 n2
[Name] Set/cancel the double wide/high
[Code]
ASCII ESC i n1 n2
Hexadecimal 1B 69 n1 n2
Decimal 27 105 n1 n2
[Defined Area] Thermal : 0 ≤ n1 ≤ 5, 48 ≤ n1 ≤ 53(“0” ≤ n1 ≤ “5”), 0 ≤ n2 ≤ 5, 48 ≤ n2 ≤ 53(“0” ≤ n2 ≤ “5”)
Slip : 0 ≤ n1 ≤ 5, 48 ≤ n1 ≤ 53(“0” ≤ n1 ≤ “5”), 0 ≤ n2 ≤ 5, 48 ≤ n2 ≤ 53(“0” ≤ n2 ≤ “5”)
Validation : 0 ≤ n1 ≤ 5, 48 ≤ n1 ≤ 53(“0” ≤ n1 ≤ “5”), 0 ≤ n2 ≤ 5, 48 ≤ n2 ≤ 53(“0” ≤ n2 ≤ “5”)
[Initial Value] Thermal : n1 = 0 (Double high cancelled), n2 = 0 (Double wide cancelled)
Slip : n1 = 0 (Double high cancelled), n2 = 0 (Double wide cancelled)
Validation : n1 = 0 (Double high cancelled), n2 = 0 (Double wide cancelled)
[Function] Specifies/cancels double high/wide for ANK characters and Kanji characters.
This command is ignored if either n1 or n2 is outside of the defined area.
n1 Expanded high
0, 48 Cancel expanded high
1, 49 Specifies 2x expansion
2, 50 Specifies 3x expansion
3, 51 Specifies 4x expansion
4, 52 Specifies 5x expansion
5, 53 Specifies 6x expansion
n2 Expanded wide
0, 48 Cancel expanded wide
1, 49 Specifies 2x wide expansion
2, 50 Specifies 3x wide expansion
3, 51 Specifies 4x wide expansion
4, 52 Specifies 5x wide expansion
5, 53 Specifies 6x wide expansion
,
n1 Expanded high
0, 48 Cancel expanded high
1 ≤ n1 ≤ 5, 49 ≤ n1 ≤ 53 Specifies 2x expansion
n2 Expanded wide
0, 48 Cancel expanded wide
1 ≤ n2 ≤ 5, 49 ≤ n2 ≤ 53 Specifies 2x wide expansion
However, in standard specifications, only the line feed amount is doubled for font configurations of 6
x 12 IBM block graphic characters.
When slip or validation is selected, and more than double is specified, printing is doubled for every
setting.
Setting more than triple is valid after switching to thermal.
(Note) The settings using this command are valid for all stations and modes.
