Extended System Commands
E-Class DPL Programmer’s Manual 29
STX KC Get Configuration
This command returns the configuration of the printer. The form of the returned data is similar to that
of a Configuration Label. This command should be parsed by KEYWORDS, not Character
POSITIONS. Each line is terminated by a CR (0x0d) & LF (0x0a). Datamax will make every effort
to keep Keyword consistent.

STX Kc Set Configuration
This command, equivalent to using other system commands followed by the <SOH>U and intended
for easily configuring a custom setup not dynamic configuration changes, specifies the Power-up
Configuration parameter values for the printer. The printer will reset upon completion of a command
stream containing parameter value (e.g., memory configuration, label width, etc.) changes; no
commands should be sent until this reset is complete. The following are highlights of this command:
• These parameter values do not affect the factory default settings of the printer.
• When separated by a semi-colon (;), multiple parameter values included in a single command
stream.
• All values are stored in Flash memory and remain in effect until new values are received or until
factory defaults are restored.
• If system commands are sent that override the Power-up Configuration value(s), the Power-up
Configuration value(s) will be restored the next time the printer is powered ‘on’ or reset.
• The parameters are the same as those found in the Setup Menu.
Note: Illegal or out of range parameter values may have unpredictable results.
