9 Part Name and Function Description 4.2 Commnunication Interface Mobi-Print has wired interface:rs232c serial port and wireless Bluetooth port RS232C interface Mobi-Print RS232 asyncronous serial port referece to EIA/TIA-232F AND CCITT V.28/V.24 standard, achived by a 5 Pin MINI-USB Outer Apperance Pin definitions 2 serial port Apperance Pin Symbol Description IO number 1 RXD printer receive data input 2 TXD Printer send date output 3 RTS Printer data requirment (1) output 4 NC Reserve (2) 5 GND Power to Power supply Remark(1):Only when printer under hardare flow function the pin have effection Remark(2):Do not connect,stay vacant Optional Baud Rate 9600bps 19200bps 38400bps 57600bps bps Data format Data length : Check bit: Stop bit : 8 bit None 1bit Boyen Technology 9 / 54

10 Part Name and Function Description Flow control Mobi-Print supplies hardware and software flow contols for main equipment. The data transmission could use non flow control. Hardware flow control Connection as below : Printer Host Device TXD Output RXD input RTS Output CTS input RXD Input TXD output GND Power supply GND Power supply The host device detects the voltage level of the CTS pin. A high voltage level on the CTS pin means the printer is ready to receive printing data, while low voltage means busy. When the printer is busy, the host device should stop sending any data to the printer until a high voltage level is detected. Software control Software flow control works on the method of XON/XOFF. The following shows the connection when the software flow control is selected: Printer Host device TXD Output RXD Input RXD Input TXD Output GND Power supply GND Power supply When the software flow control is selected, the host device detects whether the data buffer of the printer is full by the data received from the RXD pin. The host device pauses to send printing data to the printer when a XOFF signal (data: 0x13) received via the RXD pin sent by the printer, which means that the printer is busy. Once the host device receives a XON signal (data: 0x11) via the RXD pin, sending of printing data continues. Boyen Technology 10 / 54

11 Part Name and Function Description Bluetooth Printing via bluetooth has 3 phases : pairing,conneting and data sending Pairing Mobi-Print is compatible with Bluetooth1.1 specification, power class of which is CLASS 2(maximum 10 meters range). The pairing password is Connection Mobi-Print supplies SPP service to other Bluetooth devices, receive data send by SPP agreement But it does not supply service to other Bluetooth SPP agreement define 2 virtual Bluetooth serial devices, device A and device B Device A Initiative device connecting to other device (main and host device) Device B receive device to accept the conneting (receiver and secondary device) Mobi-Print is device B only after host device send SPP connection could receivd data and print. SPP,Most of data processing terminal device( Mobile phone,pc PDA,data acquisition ) support SPP, part of device may not support SPP or only could receive but could not send, please check your device before use. For devices use windows windows mobile symbia system, Mobi-Print could be used as a serial port receive device,before connecting, need to assign a virtual Bluetooth serial port number to printer, it may automatic or onwer manual assign according to different device. Connecting for host device mean open virtul bluetooth serial port, details please reference development manual or your supplier. Data sending For device using windows windows mobile symbian system,programming and send data is the same as operate other serial, details of programming reference to development or your supplier. Remark : After send the data, makre sure turn off the connecting to save power.for more information of Bluetooth and SPP please reference to website Boyen Technology 11 / 54

Disenable Chinese character printing In this chapter, the usage of each printing command will be described in detail. The format of the commands is described as follows: [COMMAND] + [parameter] [COMMAND] is the command part of a command, which consist of escape characters and command characters. Only few single-byte commands have no escape characters. [parameter] is the parameter part of a command, and is expressed in italic. Parameter is not a numerical character; it is the value of the character. All the examples in this chapter are written in the C program language. PrtSendData is a virtual function which shows the usage of the command. The developer should rewrite it according to the host device selected. The following shows the definition of the function PrtSendData: PrtSendData(char *buf, int len) Description: char *buf: int len: Send printing data to the printer; Printing data pointer Data length.

The printer can underline all characters except the blank printed using the command of HT and the characters clockwise rotated. All the characters snap to the base of the line when normal characters are in coexistence of multiple-height characters. The style of the printing characters can also be set using the Command ESC M. The command ESC E has an effect on the Overstriking enabled/disenabled too. The command ESC also has an effect on the Underline enabled/disenabled.

If the parameter [n] is assigned out of the specified range above, the command will be ignored. The vertical direction is the same as the feed direction, and the horizontal direction is perpendicular to the feed direction. The command ESC V has an execution priority over this command. When both commands are enabled at the same time, the characters display in the order of rotation first, and then magnification.

50 When defining Font A characters, the parameter [y] should be assigned to 3. When defining Font B characters, the parameter [y] should be assigned to 2. The parameter [c1] specifies the start code of the characters while the parameter [c2] specifies the ending code of the characters. The parameter [x] specifies the quantity of dots in horizontal direction relating to the font of the user-defined character. When defining Font A characters, the parameter [x] should be assigned 12. When defining Font B characters, the parameter [x] should be assigned 8. k=c2-c1+1 [Notes] user-defined characters allowed ranges from 0x20 to 0x7E of the ASCII code page (95 characters). can be used to define a serial of use-defined characters. In case that only one character is defined, assign the parameter c1 the same as c2. d1, d2 d(y * xk) are the dot data of the matrix of use-defined characters. assign the corresponding paramenter dn to 1 to print a dot. -defined characters is y x bytes. -defined characters of the same code for different fonts. e user-defined characters and the downloading bit images can t exceed 32k bytes. -defined characters will be cleared in the following cases: 1.
