EPSON TM-T88P CODES

You may find what you need here or by contacting epson(numbers are on this page)

I alredy have the driver, what I want are the codes to be used in DOS, and I already sent an email to that address with no answer, and there is nothing about thermal printers in that page

You can get a little book from Seike "TM-T60/T60P TM-T80/T80P Operators Manual" which contains the Escape sequences. The document number is 400206500.The contents are of course copyright, but here are the most important codes :-

                                                                   
   ESC @    - initialize the printer                                
   ESC _ n  - (_=space) Set character right side spacing to n times
                   1/180 inches. In double mode, double the value        
   ESC ! n  - Set print mode. The values of n are (additive)        
                                                                   
              0  - font A                                          
              1  - font B                                          
              16 - double height mode                              
              32 - double width mode                                
                                                                   
              When double height and width are set, very large      
              characters are printed                                
                                                                   
   ESC 2      Set 1/6 inch line spacing

   ESC 3 n    Set line spacing to n * 1/360 inches  
   ESC J n    Print and feed n * 1/360 inches      
   ESC R n    Select national character set        
              0 USA          6 Italy                
              1 France       7 Spain                
              2 Germany      8 Japan                
              3 UK           9 Norway              
              4 Denmark I   10 Denmark II          
              5 Sweden

   ESC i      Cut paper                            
                       
Hope that helps
                             

I accept this, these escape sequences are what I need. Please let me know where can I get that little book from Seike "TM-T60/T60P TM-T80/T80P Operators Manual"
Thank you very much for your help.

Actually it's Seiko/Epson Corporation and you should be able to order the book via its product number from your local Seiko/Epson office. I think, for example, there is one here in Germany somewhere, probably Düsseldorf.
   If however you have any difficulty I'll hack in a bit more of the book. Just let me know.
   The next message I shall send will be an answer. OK?

PERFECT, it will be appreciated very much any further help you can give me because I called the local Seiko/Epson office, with no response.
Thank again.

So what do want to do next? Bitmap printing, Which fonts are the best?

I want to print a logo (Small Bitmap or something similar).

Sorry for the delay. I have been out of the city
Thanks again for your help.

we are able to print using the above mentioned bitmap printing codes however the barcode thus printed is not able to scan by scanner.

AFTER FIVE YEARS!!!!!!

(What scan type have you selected?)

this 1998 answer is a concise and clear but I have a few questions.

Will this work with a jpg/png etc with the header in place? or does it have to be stripped from the file before sending the data (or is the printer capable of stripping that data - or using it as it needs)?

What would the command look like to send a 1"x1" (180dot x 180dot) 8-bit image to the printer?
1D 2A ?n1 ?n2  + [sequence of bytes in image (including header - or not?) ]
I'm puzzled by what n1 and n2 should be.
thanks.

@doug

No, the image MUST be in Epson format. There is a conversion program called TMFLOGO, which you should be able to find on the Epson web site, which will convert a jpg image to the correct format for the printer. It even adds the control code, so you only need to send it raw to the printer.

Thanks BR! Just to confirm - the entire sequence will be there? ie: 1D 2A ?n1 ?n2  + [sequence of bytes in Epson format]
If so - very nice..

I'd check if I were you with a hex editor, but if you choose the correct printer it should be no problem.
