1. Introduction
This material provides the necessary information for directly controlling the Brother PJ-600 series
printer (hereafter, referred to as “PJ unit”). This information is provided assuming that the user has full
understanding of the operating system being used and basic mastery of USB/Bluetooth/IrDA and
networks in a developer’s environment.
Details concerning the USB interface are not described in this material. If a USB interface is being
used, refer to “7. USB Specifications” to prepare the interface.
We accept no responsibility for any problems caused by programs that you develop using the
information provided in this material, affecting software, data or hardware, including the Brother PJ unit,
and any problems resulting directly or indirectly from them. These materials are provided in their current
condition, and we assume no responsibility for their content. Use this material only if you accept these
terms.
This material shall not be reproduced, in part or in full, without prior approval. In addition, this material
shall not be used as evidence in a lawsuit or dispute in a way that is unfavorable towards our company.

2. Overview
The printing procedure is described below. For detailed flow charts, refer to “6. Flow Charts” For details
on each command, refer to “5. Command Reference”.
1. Open USB/Bluetooth Serial/IrDA/Network port
Open the USB/Bluetooth Serial/IrDA/network port in the operating environment. In addition, since the
procedure for opening the USB port is not described in this material, perform the appropriate operation for
the environment being used.
2. Check machine status
The “Status information request” command is sent to the printer, the status information received from the
printer is analyzed, and then the status of the printer is determined. For details on the “Status information
request” command and on the definition of “status”, refer to “Status information request” in “Command
Reference”.
Printing is possible if the analysis results show that the following conditions are met.
・Paper compatible with the print data is installed in the printer.
・No error has occurred.
This step is not necessary with a unidirectional transmission.
3. Send print data
The print data is sent. The structure of the print data is explained in the next section, “3. Print Data”.
4. Confirmation of printing completion
When printing is completed, the status is sent from the printer. This status is analyzed and, if printing is
completed, one page is printed. If the print job has multiple pages, 2 through 4 are repeated.
In addition, the status is not sent with a unidirectional transmission.
5. Close USB/Bluetooth Serial/IrDA/Network port
After all printing is finished, close the port.

3.2.4. Raster line
The following shows how the raster is arranged on the pins of the print head according to "raster
graphics transfer".
The number of offset pins is calculated automatically based on the “set paper width” command and
centering the print area across the print head
The raster data specified with the “set left margin” and “1 raster line data transfer” commands is
reflected in the pins of the print area.
Furthermore, specified print data that extends out of the print area is automatically cut by the unit. In
addition, the page margins (in all directions) in the figure shown below have no effect on the raster
line.
