3, 51 Quadruple 100 100
 n is the number of the NV bit image (defined using the FS q command).
 m specifies the bit image mode.
[Details]
 NV bit image means a bit image which is defined in a non-volatile memory by FS q and printed

 This command is not effective when the specified NV bit image has not been defined.
 In standard mode, this command is effective only when there is no data in the print buffer.
 This command is not affected by print modes (emphasized, double-strike, double-height,
double-width, underline, character size, white/black reverse printing, or 90° rotated characters,
etc.), except upside-down printing mode.
 The printer does not print the NV bit image that is beyond one line of print area.

The capacity of NV memory area is 8096bytes (max).
[Description] Defines the NV bit image in the NV memory.
 n denotes the number of the NV being defined.
 xL, xH set the number of dots in the horizontal directions to (xL+xH×256)×8 for the NV bit
image.
 yL, yH set the number of dots in the vertical directions to (yL+yH×256)×8 for the NV bit image.
[Details]
 Excessive execution of this command may destroy the Flash memory. We recommend no
more than 10 times per day for writing data to the Flash memory.
 This command cancels all NV bit images that have already been defined by this command. The
printer can not redefine only one of several data definitions previously defined. In this case, all
data needs to be sent again.
 During processing this command, the printer is in BUSY when writing the data to the NV user
memory and stops receiving data. Therefore it is prohibited to transmit the data including the
real-time commands during the execution of this command.
 NV bit image means a bit image which is defined in a non-volatile memory by FS q and printed
by FS p.
 In standard mode, this command is effective only when processed at the beginning of the line.
 This command is effective when 7 bytes <FS~yH> is processed as a normal value.
 When the NV bit image bytes is exceeded the range for the left of xL, xH, yL, yH defined, the
printer processes the data which xL, xH, yL, yH defined.
 In the first group of NV bit images, when any of the parameters xL, xH, yL, yH is out of the
definition range, this command is disabled.
 In groups of NV bit images other than the first one, when the printer processes xL, xH, yL, yH
out of the defined range, it stops processing this command and starts writing into the NV
images. At this time, NV bit images that have been defined are disabled (undefined), but any
NV bit images before that are enabled.
 d indicates the definition data. In data (d) a 1 bit specifies a dot to be printed and a 0 bit
specifies a dot not to be printed.
 This command defines n as the number of a NV bit image. Numbers rise in order from NV bit
image. Therefore, the first data group [xL xH yL yH d1...dk] is NV bit image 1, and the last data
group [xL xH yL yH d1...dk] is NV bit image n. The total agrees with the number of NV bit
images specified by command FS p.
 A definition data of a NV bit image consists of [xL xH yL yH d1...dk]. Therefore, when only one

RECEIPT PRINTER
24
 NV bit image is defined n=1, the printer processes a data group [xL xH yL yH d1...dk] once.
The printer uses ([data: (xL+xH×256)×(yL+yH ×256)×8]+[header: 4]) bytes of NV memory.
 The definition area in this printer is a maximum of 64K bits (8K bytes). This command can
define several NV bit images, but cannot define a bit image data whose total capacity [bit
image data header] exceeds 64K bits (8K bytes).(different capacity by different printer, please
refer to the print specification).
 The printer is busy immediately before writing into NV memory.
 During processing this command, the printer neither transmits the status, nor executes
status queries.
 When this command is received during macro definition, the printer ends macro definition, and
begins performing this command.
 Once a NV bit image is defined, it is not erased by performing ESC @, reset, and power off.
 This command performs only definition of a NV bit image and does not perform printing.
Printing of the NV bit image is performed by the FS p command.

[Details for ①]
 This command ends with a NUL code.
 When the bar code system used is UPC-A or UPC-E, the printer prints the bar code data after
receiving 12 bytes bar code data and processes the following data as normal data.
 When the bar code system used is JAN13 (EAN13), the printer prints the bar code after
receiving 13 bytes bar code data and processes the following data as normal data.
 When the bar code system used is JAN8 (EAN8), the printer prints the bar code after receiving
8 bytes bar code data and processes the following data as normal data.
 The number of data for ITF bar code must be even numbers. When an odd number of data is
input, the printer ignores the last received data.
[details for ②]
 n indicates the number of bar code data, and the printer processes n bytes from the next
character data as bar code data.
 If n is outside of the specified range, the printer stops command processing and processes the
following data as normal data.
[Details in standard mode]
 This command is not effective when if d is outside of the specified range.
 This command is not effective when if the horizontal size exceeds printing area.
 This command feeds paper length to be same as bar code height, regardless of the line height
specified by ESC 2 or ESC 3.
 This command is enabled only when no data exists in the print buffer. When data exists in the
print buffer, this command is ignored.

APPENDIX X: CODE128 BAR CODE

X.1 Description of the CODE128 Bar Code

In CODE128 bar code system, it is possible to represent 128 ASCII characters and 100 numbers
from 00 to 99 and some special characters to code using 3 code sets. Each code set is used for
representing the following characters:
• Code set A: ASCII characters 00H to 5FH
• Code set B: ASCII characters 20H to 7FH
• Code set C: 2-digit numeral characters (100 numerals from 00 to 99)
The following special characters are also available in CODE128:
• SHIFT characters
In code set A, the character just after SHIFT is processed as a character for code set B. In code set
B, the character just after SHIFT is processed as the character for code set A. SHIFT characters
cannot be used in code set C.
• Code set selection character (CODE A, CODE B, CODE C)
This character switches the following code set to code set A, B, or C.
• Function character (FNC1, FNC2, FNC3, FNC4)
The usage of function characters depends on the application software. In code set C, only FNC1 is
available.
