proximately 50, 75, 100, 125 and 150 mm/sec. At higher
density rates the printer may not be able to print at this
speed. Printing on sticker labels with speed greater than
100 mm/s is not recommended.
Example: S3
Printing speed is set at 75 mm/sec.

5. DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE COMMANDS
5.1 Setting the printer’s functional mode
Select / Cancel direct text printing mode
The command sets the printer to a mode, in which all lines received
are printed and not executed as a command. In the “sticker labels”
mode the margin between the labels is skipped.
Format: @ n
Where n may be 0, 2, 3 or 4; 0 cancels this mode while the
other values sets the direct text printing mode using the
corresponding font number.
Setting the printing density
Offers the option to adjust the printing density depending on the sen-
sitivity of the paper and the character of the printed information.
Format: Dn
n may have values from 0 to 15 where 15 sets the
maximum density possible. Setting higher density rates
leads to slower printing.
Example: D6
Sets the printing density to 6.
Select / Cancel condensed print mode
When condensed printing is selected, the white frame around every
text symbol is not printed. So the width of every symbol becomes two
dots smaller and more symbols per line can be printed. The selected
mode is memorized after switching the printer off.
Format: jn
n=0 Normal print (default)
n=1 Condensed print
