^LSx (Label Shift)

In reference to fig. 2 on page 9, this command shifts the entire image of the label to the left by x
dots.
x is a whole number from 0

11

to 9999 and expresses the amount of displacement in numbers of

dots

12

.

This command too must be sent before the first ^FS command (page 13) and remains in effect until
the machine is reset or receives the next ^LS command.
In practice, the amount (in dots) the label is moved from the origin of the coordinates, illustrated in
fig. 2 on page 9, is determined by the following formula:
^LHx + ^FOx - ^LSx

13

If the result of this formula is a negative value, it is interpreted as equal to 0 because it is not
possible to print farther to the left than the first useful dot on the print head.

3.1.1.3 Rotation commands

^FWa (Field Orientation)

This permits clockwise rotation by 0°, 90°, 180°, or 270° (according to the value assigned to
parameter a) of all (and only) those fields which can be assigned a rotation parameter. In other
words, the rotation defined by this command is the default setting if another one is not specified.
The parameter a may assume the following values:

N

14

: Normal (0°) orientation

R: Rotated (90°) orientation
I
: Inverted (180°) orientation
B: Bottom Up (270°) orientation

The command affects only those fields which can be assigned a rotation parameter when it is
omitted. When the rotation parameter can be assigned and is used, it overrides the ^FW command.
Like the others, the ^FW command affects only the commands that follow it until the printer is reset
or the next ^FW command is sent.
