Returning to Addressed Mode
To change the printer from non-addressed mode to addressed
mode:
1. Define the printer’s address by sending the communication
settings packet. After a printer has been addressed,
immediate commands are automatically enabled with the
caret (^) as the immediate command character.
2. Select the printer by sending the immediate command,
^ADxxxxxx.
3. Send format and batch packets to the printer.
Switching Between Addressed Printers–––––––––––––––––––––––––
Depending on the supply loaded in each 9490 printer, you may
need to alternate printing between several printers.
The following example shows how to select one printer, send a
format, select a different printer, send a format, and then
switch to the first printer. Remember to print a test label to
determine each printer’s address.
Example ^AD111AAA Selects the 111AAA printer.
Copy TEST.fmt com1 Sends TEST.fmt to the 111AAA
printer.
^AD222BBB Selects the 222BBB printer.
Copy LABEL.fmt com1 Sends LABEL.fmt to the 222BBB
printer.
^AD111AAA Selects the 111AAA printer.
Copy SAMPLE.fmt com1 Sends SAMPLE.fmt to the
111AAA printer.
You can change either printer’s address to 333CCC by
sending:
{ I,F,,,,,,"333CCC"
p }
Make sure the printer you want to readdress is selected.
