Storing Data in the Printer
Memory

Commands discussed in this section allow you to store label formats
and graphics in the printer's memory for later use. Internal data

storage can help improve label throughput and may also simplify

programming in some applications.

NOTE: Internal data storage capability is an optional feature. Not all printers
accept these commands, and due to hardware limitations, some printers that
accept the commands may not successfully store data. Refer to

Table 1,

Printer Command Compatibility

for more information.

Before Using Data Storage Commands

Before using internal data storage, please note that:

• Changing the Text or Overflow Buffer sizes will delete

objects stored in the image buffer. This will not affect normal

stored formats or graphics, but will affect enhanced stored
formats.

• Storing objects will leave unknown images in memory.

Normal label printing will clear these images, but if you use
background mode or the !+ header line mode you must clear

the spurious images from memory first. (See

Header line

.)

• Storage commands let you specify what memory area will

receive the stored object. The memory area is specified as

parameter xx, with the following memory areas available:

Memory Area

0 Volatile

RAM

1

Reserved for future firmware releases

2 Expanded

Memory

3 Nonvolatile

RAM
