more “global options.”

and ROT270. If more than one global option is used, each is
separated from the next by a comma. Following the last global option
or following “Print” if there are none is the “:”

text or graphics will be placed. The row and column numbers are
separated by a comma with no spaces anywhere. The range for each
row is 1 - 65,000. The column range for the microFlash2 is 1 - 384.
The column range for the microFlash3 is 1 - 576. In a typical print
request , there may be five or more “@row,col” for the single word
“Print.”

“Name” is the name of the text, bar code, line or graphic to be
printed. The name is always five characters, even for the graphics
which you name yourself.

Field Options

graphics or lines. Each one is separated from the next by a comma.

Tip: A single print command can be used for multiple print lines called a print request. Thus,
you don’t have to repeat the word “PRINT” every time you want to print another line of text.
