<strong>AS</strong>Cll is the abbreviation for "American Standard Code for<br />
Information Interchange". The printer commands used in this<br />
manual are entered in the form of <strong>AS</strong>CII codes. Also decimal or<br />
hexadecimal codes may be used.<br />
The data information of a print medium is converted into a<br />
single-line barcode. This is done in a language-neutral and<br />
character-neutral manner. A barcode is easy to create and<br />
readable with the help of simple opto-electronic devices. It is<br />
printed in addition to textual information.<br />
Baud rate is the speed with which the data are transferred<br />
between the computer and the printer on the serial interface.<br />
The computer and the printer must have the same baud rate. It<br />
may range between 1,200 and 9,600 baud, depending on the<br />
computer used. The baud rate is only determined when a serial<br />
interface is used.<br />
Bitmap represents a collection of dots as a graphic or text<br />
graphic in output devices (printer, monitor).<br />
The buffer is a storage memory area in the printer. In the<br />
buffer, information which is destined for input or output is<br />
stored until it is processed.<br />
A cartridge is an ink container with an integrated printhead.<br />
Inserting a new cartridge always includes inserting a new<br />
printhead.<br />
A character set is defined specific to its application. It is usually<br />
a combination of letters, ciphers, lines and symbols within a<br />
font. However, character sets may also exclusively consist of<br />
symbols.<br />
Characters are understood to be letters, numbers and symbols<br />
which can be printed.<br />
Coding Coding describes the printing of a code. This code can be a 1-D<br />
code (e.g. EAN 128) or a 2-D code (e.g. Datamatrix 200).<br />
Configuration<br />
In a configuration, particular printer settings are ascertained.<br />
You may set up several configurations and save each one of<br />
them under its individual configuration number.<br />
