6.8 Precautions
6.8.1 Notes on Product speed matching Feature Use
(1)If the product speed matching signal cannot be entered during printing,
the printing state continues to prevail so that communication may not
be established (no response can be made).
If such a situation is encountered, perform procedure 1 or 2 below.
1 Enter the standby state and then initiate the communication.
2 Issue the print abort code "DC3". After the IJ printer returns an
"ACK" response, perform the normal procedure to initiate the
communication.
(2) Number of pulses necessary for a rotary encoder from print signal
detection until the start of printing.
Number of pulses necessary = Number of printing preparation pulses
( 1 ) + Print start delay.
1 Number of printing preparation pulses = A / 1 scan time
Use an integer by rounding up the fractional portion.
6.8.2 Notes on Print Condition Transmission
(1) The number of digits for character height data is 2 by default. However,
the preceding IJ printer models GX and HX use 3 digits by default for
print condition transmission (optional function). If the new model of the
IJ printer is used as a replacement for such a predecessor, open the
following screen from the communication environment setup screen
and change the number of digits for character height data to 3.
