Format Header First line of a format, immediately following the start of packet ({). A format header must begin with F, followed by various header elements.

{F,1,A,R,E,600,400,"Fmt-1" p

Monospaced Fonts	All characters have the same width and are easy to
	center justify. (Standard, bold, and reduced are
	monospaced.)
Non-volatile RAM	Contains information that is SAVED on power-down.
(NVRAM)
Option	Any line within a format that applies special formatting
R,4,6,1,3,1 p	to a field. This line always begins with R and must
	immediately follow the field it applies to.
Packet	Any string of characters within ({ }).
{B,1,N,1 p
2,"Monarch" p }
Pre-image	A way to optimize the printer, because it images the
	fields while data is collected. After the last field is
	imaged, the label prints almost immediately.
Proportionally	All characters have different widths and are difficult to
Spaced Fonts	center justify (CG Triumvirate fonts).
Soft (Downloaded)	Reside in the printer’s RAM. They can be erased or
Fonts	overwritten.
Volatile RAM	Contains information that is LOST on power-down.
