AUTOFR - Automatic Form Printing Feature
AUTOFR
treats any incoming data as a variable in-
tended for printing. This means if you send the
printer a memory partition command, the label will
print, if you send a delete command - the label will
print! So, while you are testing
AUTOFR
it is best to
use another name for the form. Once you are satis-
fied with the form, rename it
AUTOFR
before you
download it. There is no need to specify a file exten-
sion.
Isolating Data From
the Input Device
Place the printer in the diagnostic dump mode
and send from your data input device. All charac-
ters the device sends will be printed on the label.
·
If nothing prints, nothing is arriving - check
pin-outs and serial settings.
Disabling AUTOFR Send a XOFF data character (13 hex. or ASCII
19) or a NUL (00 hex. or ASCII 0) to the printer.
The form may now be deleted from the printer.
Removing AUTOFR The programmer must send a Delete Form -
FK
command to the printer after disabling
AUTOFR
.
Example:
FK"AUTOFR"
¿
FK"AUTOFR"
