• Function Y61, Setup of User Strings, used for the defining of the
user strings.
• Function Y51, User Defined Strings at Power On, used for
specifying the "Power On" string
• Function Y52, User Defined Strings at Printer Power On/Printer
Error, specifying the Error Recovery strings.
Examples:

7.1.1. User String as Input
Function Y90, User Escape String Definition is used to define a
string which can be sent to the interface as input. Since the string is
sent as input to the interface it can be used to change FSL setup
functions.
In Function 90, you may define strings with "identifiers" in HEX de-
pending on the available memory area in the permanent memory
area. These strings are sent as input to the interface when escape
"identifier" is received via the line.
