Label-Formatting Commands

T Set Field Data Line Terminator
This command, intended for use with record types that accept binary data (e.g., PDF417), allows
special binary control codes (e.g., a carriage return) to be embedded in the printed data by setting an
alternate data line terminator. It remains valid only for the next format record, then resumes the
defaults value. See Alternate Control Code Mode.
Syntax:
Tnn
Where:
nn
- Is an ASCII two-character representation of a HEX code to be used
for the end of data terminator.
Sample:
<STX>L<CR>
T00<CR>
191100200000000TEST<NULL>
141100001000100TERMINATOR<CR>
Q0001<CR>
E<CR>
The sample sets the printer to use a NULL terminator (ASCII NULL: HEX 00) for the data line
termination code. The terminator is immediately restored to a carriage return <CR>, as seen in the
format record containing the text ‘TERMINATOR’.
U Mark Previous Field as a String Replacement Field
This command controls the way replacement data is formatted. Specifying a field as a string
replacement for dynamic fields, and not for static fields, will optimize label throughput. See the
<STX>U command.
Note: The data string length of any replacement is set by the length of the original string; both must
be equal. The data being used when created must be valid for the font type being selected.
