Sequential Numbering
Command Structure <ESC>Faaabcccc,dd,ee,f
aaaa = Number of times to repeat the same data (0001-9999)
b = Plus or minus symbol (+ for increments; - for decrements)
cccc = Value of step for sequence (0001-9999)
,dd = Number of digits for sequential numbering (01-99). The first
incrementing character position starts after the positions
exempted from sequential numbering as specified in ee.
If these digits are left out, the default is 8.
,ee = Number of digits free from sequential numbering (00-99)
starting with the right most position. If these digits are left out,
the default is 0.
,f = 0 Decimal count
1 Hexadecimal count
Example: <ESC>F0001-001,04,03,0
In this example, the right most (least significant) three digits
would not decrement and the next four would decrement.
Placement: Preceding the starting value to be incremented or
decremented.
Default: None
Command Function To allow the ability to print sequential fields (text, bar codes) where all
incrementing is done within the printer. Up to eight different
sequential fields can be specified per label. Sequencing is effective
for up to 99-digit numeric data within each field.
