5.3.2PRINTING COMMANDS

The following commands initiate label printing or define the number of labels to be printed.

^A ^D Command

3Print Command: Prints a single label or starts the printing of a batch of labels. This is usually the last command in a format file.

11Print Test: Prints a label with diagonal lines that is useful in determining the condition of wear of the print head. (Equivalent to ^K)

12Form Feed: (Equivalent to ^L) Prints a blank label.

70Clear commands 71-76.

71Disable Copies Function: Suspends multiple copies function and returns printer to single copy mode.

72Enable Copies Function: Allows a batch of labels to be produced. Used to

restore conditions after a ^D71 has been executed. (Note: if copies function was disabled with the ^D71 command, then this function will restore copies function using previously entered copies count^D73.)

XX73 Load copies count: Tells the printer to print multiple copies without incrementing serial numbers. This command can be used in conjunction with the ^D75 (load print count) to allow duplicate copies to be made inside a batch. For example, the following command string will print a total of 150 labels; three copies of each serial number and 50 different numbers (^A3^D73^A50^D75^D3<CR>).

174 Infinity Print: Prints a batch of labels but will continue to print until the printer is turned off. This command is most useful in tag/tear or peel-and-dispense modes. ^A1 activates this mode. Can be used with serial numbers. Example usage: ^A1^D74^D3<CR> - Prints until printer turned off or paused, using the front panel button.
