MULTIPLE
Function Causes the printer to print duplicate labels side-by-
side.
Explicit Form MULTIPLE nnn
Implicit Form M nnn
Parameters
n
is the number of duplicate labels to print side-by-
side. The acceptable range is 2 to 9.
The labels printed side-by-side must actually fit in
the available space; otherwise they are truncated on
the right side.
NOTE: Avoid using this command with high speed
Barcode Blaster printers. Barcode Blaster will
automatically reduce its print speed to 3 IPS when it
encounters this command, due to the increased
processing requirements.
Comments Using this command when printing many small
labels can save considerable amounts of label stock.
The command is also useful for printing split labels.
The total number of labels printed is the same as
the quantity specified in the header line.
You may use the MULTIPLE command with the
ADJUST
command to print labels side-by-side with
changing numeric data. However, the adjusted
values will only change when the printer feeds the
next label, so each set of side-by-side labels are
identical.
NOTE: Place the MULTIPLE command after the
header line but before any commands that map
components on the label, such as
STRING or
BARCODE .
