p Set Backfeed Speed
This command, typically used in conjunction with the Cut or Peel and Present operations, controls
the rate at which the labels will reverse to align to the next start of print position. The setting remains
in effect until another backfeed speed command is received or until the printer is reset.

for valid ranges.
Sample:

Q Set Print Quantity
This command sets the number of the label copies to be printed. A one to five digit value is allowed,
if the command is delimited by a carriage return <CR>. This permits host applications to generate
label quantity commands without the need to pad leading zeros. (A four-digit command value does
not need to be <CR> terminated.)
Syntax:
Qnnnnn
Where:

- Is a one to five-digit delimited value setting for the number of
labels to be printed. The default value is one.
