Syntax GK {“NAME””*”}

Parameters This table identifies the parameters for this format:

Parameters

Details

 

 

“NAME”

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

 

from memory.

 

Graphic names stored by the printer are case sensitive and

 

will be stored exactly as entered with the GM command

 

line; i.e. “LOGO1”, “logo1” and “LoGo1” are three

 

different graphics when stored into the printer or when

 

retrieved by the user.

 

Deleting a single graphic requires that the

 

GK”FORMNAME” command string be issued twice for

 

each form deleted. Some label generation programs re-

 

issue graphics (graphic delete and store) every time a label

 

is printed which will reduce flash memory life.

 

 

“*” = Wild card

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

 

from memory. The GK”*” does not need to be issued twice to

 

delete all graphics.

 

 

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

GK"LOGO"

GK"LOGO"

Example 2 • This example deletes all graphics.
