Logos are easily created using alphanumeric commands and a
variety of print and shading features, which provides a “customized”
appearance for forms, reports, and labels. The registered
trademark, copyright, TUV®, GS-Mark, UL®, and CSA® symbols
are provided as standard designs on the VGL, and you can also
define custom symbols.
Reverse and Shaded Print permit highlighting and contrasting by
printing white characters on a dark background or white characters
on a gray, shaded background. Various levels or patterns of gray
shading and reverse printing may combine with the many other
print features to create distinctive designs.
Automatic Increment/Decrement Capability allows batch form
processing. Individual alphabetic, numeric, and barcode data fields
can be identified and automatically incremented or decremented by
any amount, beginning from a specified reference point.
Standard Character Sets provide you with many different
character sets. Based on the Multinational Character Set, you can
create your own character sets using characters defined and stored
in flash memory.
Configuring The Emulation With
The Control Panel
You can select VGL default parameters directly from the control
panel or by control codes as explained in the
IGP/VGL
Programmer's Reference Manual
. The VGL parameters are
described on the following pages. Parameters marked with an
asterisk (*) indicate the default value. The printer must be offline to
enter the configuration structure.
IMPORTANT
BEFORE you reconfigure the IGP/VGL, print a configuration
sheet to see all of the current settings.
Pressing an invalid key to enter a parameter value may move you
to another level in the configuration menu or exit the menu
completely.
