Resetting Control Characters

You can change the characters in the previous example back
to their original settings by downloading this packet:

{I?E?"~123~044~034~124~125~126~094"

p }

Notice that the parameter separator is ? in this packet. This is
the parameter separator that was set before this packet. Once
the packet is received by the printer, the new parameter
separator (a comma, in this case) is valid. Be careful when
using this feature. If you forget what the control characters
were changed to, print a test label. (The test label lists the
current control characters.) See "Printing a Test Label," in
Chapter 8 for more information.

Defining the Communication Settings Packet –––––––––––––––––––

Use the communication settings packet (F) to set the baud
rate, word length, stop bits, parity, and flow control for serial
communications. Changing the communication settings takes
approximately two seconds. Communications sent during this
interval will be lost.
