Chapter 2

S Set Slew Rate

This command sets the rate for the printer to feed non-printed areas of the label through the printer. The slew rate remains unchanged unless another slew rate command is sent, the printer is reset or a new rate is set via the menu.

s Store Label Format In Module

This command stores a label format in a specified module. Supplying memory module name A, B, or D will store the label to that module. (Using C will cause the label format to be stored in whichever module has been set as the default module, refer to the Set Default Module Command, <STX>X.) The store label- format command will terminate the Label-Formatting Command.

T Set Field Data Line Terminator

This command is valid only for the next format record, after which the terminator defaults to a carriage return. This allows the user to embed special binary control codes (e.g., carriage returns) into the data to be printed. It is intended to be used with record types (e.g., PDF417), that will accept binary data.

U Make Previous Field A String Replace Field

This command does not require the use of an updated field (register loading); the command only controls the way the bit-mapped data is formatted. The data used when it is created must be valid for the font type being used. If the command is used, only the changing data will be reformatted; if this command is not used the entire label will be formatted. The U command is used in conjunction with the <STX>U command to reformat only portions of a label, resulting in faster label generation.

X Terminate Label-Formatting Mode

When the printer is in Label-Formatting mode and receives this command, it will immediately switch to the System-Level Command mode and generate a label format based on whatever data it has already received. However, unlike the ‘E’ command, it will not print a label. (Other termination commands are the ‘E’ and ‘s’ Label-Formatting Commands.)

y Select Font Symbol Set

Same as a System-Level Command <STX>y. Symbol sets are used only with scalable fonts (see Generating Label Formats; also see <STX>y).

z Zero (Ø) Conversion to “0”

This command removes the slashes from zeros in fonts 0 to 8, and barcodes. The command is effective only for the label format in which it appears, and applies to all format records containing fonts 0 through 8 or barcodes A through Z. (None of the smooth fonts [font 9] have a slash zero.) The command has no effect on scalable fonts.
