STX E

Set Quantity For Stored Label

This command sets the number of labels for printing using the format currently in the print buffer.
(The printer automatically stores the most recent format received in the buffer until the printer is reset
or power is removed.) When used in conjunction with the <STX>G command, this will print the
labels.

Syntax:

<STX>Ennnn

Where:

nnnn

- A four-digit quantity, including leading zeros.

Sample:

<STX>E0025
<STX>G

Printer response:

25 labels of the current format in memory will be printed.

Notes: (1) This command may be issued prior to a label format without a specified quantity, Qnnnnn.

Also, if a <CR> terminates the command, a five-digit quantity (nnnnn) can be entered.


(2) All models, except E-Class – Specifying 9999 as the four-digit quantity causes continuous
printing.



STX e

Select Edge Sensor

This command enables transmissive (see-through) sensing for top-of-form detection of die-cut, and
holed (or notched) media. This Media Sensor will detect a minimum gap of 0.1 inches (2.5 mm)
between labels (see the Operator’s Manual for media requirements). Use the <STX>O command to
adjust the print position. This is the printer default setting at power-up or reset.

Syntax:

<STX>e

Note:

This command is ignored when <STX>cnnnn is issued with a non-zero value for nnnn.






STX F

Form Feed

This commands the printer to form feed to the next start of print.

Syntax:

<STX>F

Printer response:

The printer will form feed.


Note:

Following a reset, if the length of the first label fed is less than the label offset value (defined by
the <STX>O command) the printer will advance past that label until a top-of-form is detected, or
until the offset is reached.
