Parameters

Details

 

 

“FORMNAME”

By entering the name of a form, that form will be deleted

 

from memory.

 

The name may be up to 8 characters long.

 

Form names stored by the printer are case sensitive and

 

will be stored exactly as entered on the FS command line;

 

i.e. “FORM1”, “form1” and “FoRm1” are three different

 

forms when stored into the printer or when retrieved by

 

the user.

 

Deleting a single form requires the FK”FORMNAME” be

 

issued twice for each form to be deleted. Some label

 

generation programs re-issue forms (form delete and

 

store) every time a label is printed which reduces flash

 

memory life.

 

 

“*” = Wild card

By including an “*” (wild card), ALL forms will be deleted

 

from memory.

 

The FK”*” does not need to be issued twice to delete all

 

forms.

 

 

Example 1 • This example deletes the AFORM form. A second delete is requierd for flash printers.

FK"AFORM"

FK"AFORM"

Example 2 • This example deletes all forms.
