Black Box PC118C-R2 manual Zxx,y/Zxx,yy/Zxx,yyyC

CHAPTER 5: Configuration

3.Type the number of the command you want to use, as shown in the examples in Section 5.3. Always use two digits for the command number (“&%Z05,” for example).

4.Type a comma.

5.Type the argument (the value) representing your desired selection. No spaces are allowed. A space or invalid character in a command causes the Card to ignore the command and resume printing from the point where the error occurred.

6.Terminate the download command with a single space or control character (“NL,” “FF,” “CR,” or “LF,” for example).

7.Multiple commands can be chained together by using a forward slash (“/”) or backslash (“\”) to separate the commands (no spaces are allowed).

As with a single command, the overall command string must begin with “&%” or the alternate CPT-start delimiter, and must end with a single space or control character (see Step 6). The terminating space or control character is not sent to the printer, but the host-download commands are sent to the printer and take effect immediately on the page where they are located.

Here is a general template for a string containing multiple commands:

&%Zxx,y/Zxx,yy/Zxx,yyyC

where xx = the command no.; y, yy, etc. = the argument; and

C = a space or control charac-ter.

For example, to set the host-port timeout (command 03) to 20 seconds (argument 20), change the host language (command 05) to Austrian/ German (argument 02), and select long-edge duplexing (command 33, argument 1), type:

&%Z03,20/Z05,2/Z33,1
