Datamax E4203 All in One Printer User Manual


 
Extended System Commands
E-Class DPL Programmer’s Manual 51
The sample sets up the label format for register loading and prints two labels. The first two of the
four format records have been designated as replacement fields. The second label is generated with
System-Level field-replacement commands and prints the last label.
Note: The data string length of any register is set by the length of the string when it was created
and the new string must be the same length as the old string. The data being used when it
is created must be valid for the font type being used.
X Terminate Label-Formatting Mode without Printing
This command causes the printer, when in label-formatting mode, to immediately switch to the
system command mode and generate a label format based on the data received at that point.
However, unlike the ‘E’ command, it will not print a label. (Other termination commands are the ‘E’
and ‘s’.)
Syntax:
X
Sample:
<STX>L<CR>
141100001000100SAMPLE<CR>
X<CR>
The sample will result in a label format, but no label will be printed.
y Select Font Symbol Set
This command, like the <STX>y, selects the scalable font symbol set. The selected symbol set
remains active until another symbol set is selected; see the <STX>y for details.
Syntax:
ySxx
Where:
S
- Byte size designation; see Appendix H
S = Single-byte symbol sets.
U = Double-byte symbol sets (as equipped)
xx
- Symbol set selection.
Sample:
<STX>L
ySSW<CR>
The sample selects the Swedish symbol set for use in succeeding format records using scalable fonts.
