<ESC>A<ESC>AR<ESC>#E3<ESC>CS4<ESC>Z

<ESC>A

<ESC>H0290<ESC>V0040<ESC>RDB00,P20,P20,SCAN ME

<ESC>H0300<ESC>V0100<ESC>BQ3008,2http://wws5.com

<ESC>H0210<ESC>V0350<ESC>RDB00,P16,P16,wws5.com

<ESC>Q1

<ESC>Z

<ETX>

<STX> is start-of-transmission

<ESC>A is the beginning of a command
<ESC>AR is standard length
<ESC>#E3 is 3 darkness on a scale of 1 to 3 (you can vary this).
<ESC>CS4 is 4“ per second printing
