Configuration Syntax Guidelines

When creating a printer configuration packet:
NFollow the "Standard Syntax Guidelines" listed at the
beginning of this chapter.
NBegin a packet with the configuration header (I).
NDownload multiple configuration packets within one packet or
download a single configuration packet.
NInclude the first five ANSI codes, at a minimum, in the control
characters packet.
NIf you change any of the online configuration packets, resend
the format packet to the printer, so the configuration changes
take effect.
NMake sure the communication settings at the host match those
at the printer.
Making Print Adjustments
You can adjust where the printer prints on your supply by
adjusting the supply, print, or margin positions. However, keep in
mind the following:
NSupply adjustments across the width of your supply, such as
the margin position, are based in dots- either 203 dpi or 300
dpi, depending on your printhead density.
NSupply adjustments for the length of your supply, such as
supply position or print adjustment, are always measured in
1/203 of an inch, regardless of your printhead density.
Defining the System Setup Packet
Use the system setup packet (A) to select the power up mode,
display language, print separators between ba tches, print a
"slashed zero," and select the symbol set.
