Thanks Joe. I was playing with it and figured out the correct ESC codes. Appreciate all the tips!
What printer are you using? Would be interested in you opinion as not ordered one yet.
Yes i was talking about the epson printers with black and red ink. Is this the same printer you have and how did you figure it out, it wont work for me.
Also, is there an easy way to switch between menus? We have a Lunch menu that is different from the dinner menu. I have not found an easy way to switch between the two.
Version 5 you will be able to switch menus from within the ticket. V4 you cant do this currently.
This should solve color question. Those commands are in your printers documentation.
Hi Joe, Just saw this. We are using an Epson TM-U220A I believe. So far so good.
Is V5 out? if not when will it be?
Thats the same printer i’m using, could you copy what you have because i must be doing something wrong.
I believe the estimated release is sometime late in June subject to beta testing.
Not sure how to add the grey area so the codes will be visible.
These two line items are what I have in my Kitchen template which makes the font bigger and everything prints in Red.
I submitted a question to Emre about what the codes mean (I took those from one of his posts) but am pending a response.
I think youll probably find that 27,33,16 is ‘set red’ and 27,33,0 is ‘set black’ a bit like xxxxx in html.
Your font size is more likely set by the formatting tag at the beginning of the [ORDERS] section where you have {QUANTIRY} and {NAME}
Each printer will have specific codes for this. You look them up in your printers documentation.
