EPL Commands

FS

FS

Store Form

Description This command begins a form store sequence.

All commands following FS will be stored in form memory until the FE command is received, ending the form store process.

Delete a form prior to updating the form by using the FK command. If a form (with the same name) is already stored in memory, issuing the FS command will result in an error and the previously stored form is retained.

To print a list of the forms currently stored in memory, use the FI command.

Data stored within a form can not have the Null (0 dec. 00 hex.) character as part of any data within that form.

A form will not store if insufficient memory is available. See the M command for details on adjusting and configuring memory for forms, graphics and soft fonts.

Syntax FS”FORMNAME”

Parameters This table identifies the parameters for this format:

“FORMNAME”

This is the form name used when the form was stored.

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.

Global commands such as EI, EK, ES, FI, FK, GI, GK, GM, M, N, P, TS, U, UE, UF, UG, Y, W, ?, ^@ should not be used in a form store sequence.
