*1 The default for these elements depends on the character
generator used (CGN).
*2 The default for this element depends on the text conversion
identifier used (TCI).
The field elements are:
TSN TEXT STRING NUMBER
This element determines which text string to get the data from.
This allows more than one field to use the same text string.
XB X BEGINNING COORDINATE
The X coordinate of the field is measured in dots. The X
coordinate is specified from the right edge of the field as
viewed from the front of the printer. The X coordinate
increases in size from left to right as viewed from the front
of the printer.
YB Y BEGINNING COORDINATE
The Y coordinate of the field is measured in dots. The Y
coordinate is specified from the leading edge of the field as
viewed from the front of the printer. The Y coordinate
increases in size as the label feeds from the printer.
CC CHARACTER COUNT
This element determines how many characters will be used in the
field. If the number of characters in the selected text string
is less than the amount used by CC then the remainder of the
field is padded with blanks.
TCI TEXT CONVERSION IDENTIFIER
This element determines how the selected text string number
(TSN) will be printed on the label.
