PGL Modes

PGL Modes

Four basic modes of operation for the PGL are available: NORMAL, LOGO, CREATE, and EXECUTE.

NORMAL

In NORMAL mode, the printer functions in line printer mode. The incoming data is scanned by the printer for SFCC commands. When the printer encounters a properly formatted SFCC Command it executes the specified command.

CREATE

The CREATE mode allows you to create forms for use in EXECUTE mode. These forms can include logos, borders, and static text.

EXECUTE

The EXECUTE mode allows you to use the forms you have created.

LOGO

The LOGO mode allows you to create graphical images for use in forms.

PGL Commands

This section discusses the commands that can be used in PGL mode. Many of the commands may be used in multiple modes and in some instances there are slight differences in the construction of the command in different modes. When one of these commands is presented, the different modes used be noted. Table 8 lists all of the commands and the modes in which they can be used.
