The message structure below places a graphic field in a format.

You can have up to 100 graphic images. The graphic record can be placed in a format data stream anywhere following the format header record.

Graphics are counted as fields, just like text or bar code fields. When determining the number of fields in your format, count each graphic as a separate field.

Syntax G##, ROW, COLUMN p

If graphic fields overlap with other fields in the data stream, the last field in the data stream will dominate.

Field

Contents

G##

Must begin with the letter ’G’ for a graphic field.

 

The G is followed by one or two digits for the graphic number.

 

Enter the number you assigned to the graphic in the graphic

 

data stream.

 

Values:

0-99

ROW

One to four digits to define the row location of the graphic on

 

the supply. This is the distance from the the guide edge zero

 

point at the bottom of the supply and the bottom of the field.

 

The zero point is 1.5 mm or 0.060 inches from the bottom of

 

the supply. The bottom of the supply is the edge that exits the

 

printer first.

 

This value is measured in tenths of millimeters (TOMMS) and

 

must be less than the maximum length of the supply.

 

Values:

0-2032

COLUMN

One to four digits to define the column location of the field on

 

the supply. This is the distance from the guide edge zero

point at the left edge of the supply and the left edge of the field.
