Command	Parameter

^CA	Cancels all the batches or cancels the last batch in the queue.

^CB	Cancels only the current batch being printed.

^DD or	Disables the MPCL data escape character (the tilde) and inhibits MPCL
^DCd	from acting on ANY data escape sequence from the host. Sets the MPCL
	data escape character to the ASCII value given by the d parameter. The
	value can be any ASCII character.
^EA	Aborts an error condition. May need to be sent multiple times. Use ^RB to
	reprint batch.
	CAUTION: Command causes the current batch to stop and the
	condition that caused the error to remain uncorrected.
^ER	Resets the error. Normal operation will resume.

^FD	Feeds a label when printer is idle. Simulates the operation of pressing
	FEED and dispenses the next label if printer is in the on-demand mode
	(purchase optional). NOTE: Printer ignores this command if printing.
^ID or ^ICd	Disables the Immediate Command feature by turning off the Immediate
	Command escape character. Sets the Immediate Command escape
	character to the ASCII value given by the d parameter. The value can be
	any ASCII character.
^MC	Returns the customer ID or RPQ version to the host. (00 - 99)

^MD	Returns the printhead dot density to the host. 00 = 203 dpi 01 = 300 dpi

^MI	Returns the customer ID or RPQ revision level to the host. (00 - 99)

^MM	Returns the model number to the host. 41 = 9416

^MP	Returns the prototype number to the host. (00 - 99)

^MR	Returns the revision number to the host. (00 - 99)

^MV	Returns the version number to the host. (00 - 99)

^PR	Resets the printer. This command takes five seconds to complete and then
	the printer is ready to receive data. It has the same effect as turning off
	and then turning on the printer.
	NOTE: Command should be used only when the printer is not printing.
^RB	Repeats the last printed batch, printing the same number of labels as
	specified in the original batch. This command does not work if using batch
	separators.
	NOTE: Printer ignores this command if printing.
^RS	Resynchronizes supply when supply roll is changed.
	NOTE: Printer ignores this command if printing.
^TP	Prints a diagnostic (test) label. NOTE: Printer ignores this command if
	printing.
