Customized Values and Memory Switches With the customized values and memory switches, which are software switches for the printer, you can config- ure various settings of the printer. To set the customized values and memory switches, see "Software Settings" on page 42 . User-defined Page You can store character data in the user-defined page (character code table: page 255) so that you can also print characters not resident in the printer. Maintenance Counter With this function, printer information, such as the number of lines fed, the number of autocuts, and printer operation time after the printer starts working, is automatically stored in NV memory.
You can read or reset the information with TM-P60II Utility, the Status API of the APD, or OPOS ADK to use it for periodical checks or part replacement. • Maintenance counter values can also be checked with TM-P60II Utility or by executing a self- test. • Maintenance counter values are usually saved every two minutes except in the power saving status. However, if the printer power is turned off by removing the battery or using up the bat- tery charge, the latest maintenance counter will not be saved. For detailed information about ESC/POS commands, see the ESC/POS Command Reference. 24
