Information

In all new Windows printer drivers of PSi a code page ISO 8859-15 is used with the Euro symbol. In older printers, this code page is not available, so the printer in this command will fall back to its default character set. In older printers is only character set ISO 8859-1 available . This should selected and saved in all macros. This ISO set has all characters without the euro symbol (this will then printed as a graphic sign).

Information

PSi uses a lubricating oil “ISOFLEX PDP 61A”

The manufacturer is:
Fa. Klüber Lubrication
Geisenhausener Straße 7
81379 München
Tel.:0049 89 78760

Alternatively, you can also use a good typewriters oil.

For LPR Printing from Windows the byte count must be activated .

Reason:

“LPR Byte Counting” forcing Windows to count the number of bytes in the file and sends this value to the data of the received file as a command. If LPR byte count is disabled, Microsoft puts on a size which is much larger than the actual file size. It is neither 0 nor the actual file size.

Possible Cause 1:

The print head cable is defective. (Line break)

It is recommended to use the PSi original printer driver and use of the application only internal printer fonts. TrueType fonts are fonts graphics printed with graphics speeds.
However, if the need TrueType fonts to use, the PP40x) and all models offer the possibility of accelerating the Grafidruckes. In macro menu setting the print quality is there, the menu item for graphic quality.
The following settings are possible:

• Standard
• WIN LQ 180 dpi
• WIN NLQ 90 dpi
• WIN DRAFT 60 dpi

Depending on the print quality, the printing speed is to be increased. However, the font size is retained. Likewise, these settings can be made in the printer driver.

Information

Use an internal font in your application. Enter Barcode commands and start / stop commands. These are described in the User Guide Barcode Quick Reference Guide. Use $$ instead of ESC [and select the Printers menu $$ – Emulation. The bar code is not shown on the screen.

Information

In Job should be additional sequences installed:

• ESC[;;;30 73 für Cut Mode OFF
• ESC[;;;31 73 für Cut Mode ON (after next Form Feed)
• ESC[;;;32 73 for cutting at the current position + 4mm

For this please is the printer documentation observed.

At job start “Cut Mode OFF” insert to prevent accidental cutting at FF.

At the desired site “cutting at the current position” insert if not to be cut at bottom of page.

For cutting at bottom of page “Cut Mode ON” and, if necessary. A FF (0C) insert.

Information

Printed with the Font Data also bar with PSi sequences, optimizing performance is possible.
The parameter P7 should preferably be set to the value “3” in the barcode sequence on the system side. Then the PSi barcode is printed in “NLQ unidirectional”. This is sufficient for most applications. Tests with readers, however, are recommended.

ESC[;P2;P3;P4;P5;P6;P7_z (Note:_ = Space)

Background:
By default, the printer uses the parameter P7 is “1” (= LQ unidirectional). For this, the print head must also be brought into the appropriate position. If the surrounding text in DATA / DRAFT printed in the other print head position, here switchover pauses are inevitable.

Details see Appendix Barcode Quick Reference Manual of the respective printer

Cause of

Installation Instructions for Standard PM Ethernet 10/100 MBit without SCS converter to an AS400 / iSeries

The print servers fully support the SCS data stream of the IBM AS / 400 / iSeries. For IPDS data, only the conversion of fonts is possible. Other IPDS features still have to be implemented by specific IPDS data stream converters that are connected between the system and printer. In AS / 400 networks, network printers can be operated in two different ways:

• a remote output queue (RMTPRTQ)
• a device description
