Save 30% of paper
« on: August 24, 2012, 10:03:47 am »
Hello, inputting this command <XCT 27, 51, 0> at the beginning of each print model can save 30% of paper.
The command does nothing but remove the space between one line and another as shown in the attached picture.
I hope I can be of help.

Tomorrow if I can public guidance on how to build a simple buzzer to be connected to the door of the drawer money, or through a command entered in the model press produces a sound and alerts you when an order comes to the kitchen or bar.

didn't work for me. I added the line to the top of the header template. All the lines got printed over each other. What did you do so that there's no empty space, about 3 lines in the header and footer?

Printer BIXOLON SRP-275CG It's a mini dot-matrix printer. >> http://www.bixolon.com/_eng/products/product_form.asp?uid=2

Driver installed >> SAMSUNG SRP-350

Why using SAMSUNG instead of BIXOLON driver is an interesting question.. Just that's the way it's setup, I can install different driver if you think it would make a difference.

I personally tried with epson T88, custom kube, star srp100 and Bixolon 350. I've never tried Bixolon 275 should get the manual and see the command that reduces the spacing between two lines.

Thanks spank .. cool nick by the way :P

I installed the driver from BIXOLON and it actually prints much faster.

I looked through the manual but really i can't understand anything, where did you get that <XCT 27, 51, 0> decreases space between lines? How do I find what's equivalent to my printer?

The command is this <XCT 27, 51, 0> , but from what I can understand this printer does not support this command. try changing the last number, place such as 100, 200 etc. ..
