Also, using a graphic packet for a compliance label reduces
the number of fields in your format. Formats have a maximum
number of fields per packet (0-99). However, you can bypass
that requirement by placing your compliance layout in a
graphic packet. When you process your formats, you only
need one line to call the graphic packet.
The following example shows how to call a graphic packet
from within a format packet.
{ Start of Packet
F,1,A,R,E,400,400,"RDCI"
p Format Header
G,57,0,0,0,0
p Call the graphic packet
. variable information
. variable information
} End of Packet
Once you have your compliance label format set up, all you
need to do is add the variable sections (bar codes, addresses,
and order information) to the format packet.
To see a sample compliance label graphic packet, refer to
"Creating a Graphic Packet." To see a sample compliance
label using a graphic packet within a format, refer to "Placing
the Graphic in a Format."
Overview of Bitmapped Images ––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––
A printed image is formed through a
series of dots. Each square on the grid
represents a dot on the printhead. The
graphic image is created by blackening
dots in a specific pattern.
You can print varying shades of gray
according to the concentration of dots
on the image.
When the dots are printed together, the
end result is a graphic image.
