Commands are available for retrieving stored label formats, updating data, and adding new data. These
techniques are used for increasing throughput. See <STX>G, Label Recall Command ‘r’, and Label Save
Command ‘s’.
Typical commands used in the various stages shown above are listed in the tables that follow.
Configuration Commands
The following table lists some commands useful in controlling printer configuration. These
commands are generally effective only for the current power-up session; toggling power restores the
default configuration. See <STX>Kc for changes to the default power-up configuration. Changing the
default power-up configuration and saving objects in printer Flash memory can reduce the data
transmitted for each label and therefore improve throughput.
Configuration
Command
Name Function
<STX>A Set Date and Time Set Date and Time
<STX>d Set Double Buffer Mode
Force generation of multiple memory copies of label format;
usually not used
<STX>c Set Continuous Paper Length Must be 0000 for gap media; not used for reflective media
<STX>e Set Edge Sensor Setup for gap or registration hole type stock
<STX>Kf
Set Present Distance
Determines label stop position, head relative. <STX>f edge
sensor relative equivalent command, older models
<STX>Kc Configuration Set Determines default power-up configuration
<STX>F Send Form Feed Sets the stop position of the printed label
<STX>M Set Maximum Label Length
Length to search for next gap or reflective mark; not used
with continuous media
<STX>m Set to Metric Mode
Subsequent measurements interpreted in metric (most units
mm/10). Label equivalent command can be used
<STX>n Set to Inch Mode
Subsequent measurements interpreted in inches, most units
in/100, Label equivalent command can be used
<STX>O Set Start of Print Position
Effect is not on label immediately following command since
media position is at Start of Print between labels; <STX>K
default position relative
± 64 in/100 maximum deviation
<STX>S Set Feed Rate Blank label movement speed
<STX>V Software Switch Enable optional hardware, cutter, present sensor
