• The first file name following the command name is the
name of the input file that you want to convert.
• The second file name is the name of the downloadable
output file, which the utility will create.
• The third file name is the name of the output file as it will be
stored in the flash memory after downloading and later
displayed on the printer LCD menus.
• The “A” parameter in the command line is a fixed
parameter that must always be entered.
• If the file being converted is a font file, enter “FONT”
following the “A” parameter on the command line. If the file
is not a font file, omit “FONT.”
IMPORTANT Be sure that you always enter the “A” parameter on the
lasr2fls command line, as indicated above.
When the lasr2fls utility runs, it reads the file named
file_name1 and creates the file named file_name2 . The
file named file_name2 is a flash downloadable file that can
be copied and downloaded to the printer, as detailed later in
this section. The utility takes the filename you specify for
file_name3 and stores this information within the
downloadable output file ( file_name2 ). The file_name3 file
name is used only to determine the file name to display on the
printer front panel menus.
IMPORTANT To make disk-based and flash-based emulations compatible
with one another, the first and third file names in the command
line must be the same.
5. To convert a font file, enter a command at the DOS prompt
such as:
lasr2fls custom.sf custom.dwn custom.sf A FONT <Return>
where custom.sf is the name of one of the font files you want
to convert. This command converts the specified font file,
creating the downloadable file
custom.dwn .
