STAR LIne Mode Command Specifications
ESC W n
[Name] Specify/cancel expanded wide
[Code]
ASCII ESC W n
Hexadecimal 1B 57 n
Decimal 27 87 n
[Defined Area] Thermal : 0 ≤ n ≤ 5, 48 ≤ n ≤ 53, (“0” ≤ n ≤ “5”)
Slip : 0 ≤ n ≤ 5, 48 ≤ n ≤ 53, (“0” ≤ n ≤ “5”)
Validation : 0 ≤ n ≤ 5, 48 ≤ n ≤ 53, (“0” ≤ n ≤ “5”)
[Initial Value] Thermal : n = 0 (Double wide cancelled)
Slip : n = 0 (Double wide cancelled)
Validation : n = 0 (Double wide cancelled)
[Function] Specifies/cancels double wide for ANK characters and Kanji characters.
n 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
,
n Function
0, 48 Cancels double wide expanded printing
1 ≤ n ≤ 5 49 ≤ n ≤ 53 Specifies double wide expanded printing
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.
