PALTM Print and Program Overview

Printers featuring PALTM Print and Program ability can be used in several ways in any given environment. This section describes 3 common ways this advanced capability is used. For help and assistance determining the best way to use this ability in your situation, please consult your sales representative.

Traditional Printing

This environment represents the most common use of printers. Generally a single print job (PALTM print sequences) generates a single label. In this role the PALTM Print and Program interpreter accepts the print job, performs the required operator processing and prints the; label, tag, or ticket. Using a Windows driver in conjunction with a Windows application program is a typical way to print in this environment. Alternatively, PALTM print sequences may also be generated by any host application written to take advantage of this powerful language.

When a PALTM capable printer is used this way, no special “PALTM program” must be loaded on the printer. Print sequences generated by a Windows driver or host program are simply sent to the printer resulting in print output just like traditional printers.

Legacy Data Stream Interpretation

PALTM Print and Program capable printers uniquely address applications where upgrading to modern cost effective technology is desired. Often cost-prohibitive software reprogramming to change a data stream prevents an organization from moving to new printing technologies.
