DT, Define Label Terminator

This command specifies the character to be used as the label terminator and whether it is printed. Use DT to define a new label terminator if you desire a different one or if your computer cannot use the default (ETX, decimal code 3).

The character immediately following DT is interpreted to be the new label terminator. You must terminate all Label (LB) commands following a DT command with the specified label terminator.

zNo Parameter— Defaults the label terminator to ETX (not a semicolon) and the mode to non-printing (1).

zLabel Terminator— Specifies the label terminator as the character immediately following the DT mnemonic. (If you use a space between the mnemonic and the label terminator parameter the space becomes the label terminator.)
