unprintable character.

Merged or Sub-Fields
If a field is completely filled by data copied from other fields,
use quotation marks without spaces between them for the
"data string" parameter.
Incrementing Fields
In incrementing fields, the first number in the sequence must
contain the same number of digits as the highest number to be
counted. For example, to increment the numbers in a field
from 1 to 999, enter the starting number in the batch as 001.
Downloading Methods ––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––
Depending on your application, you can download the format
and batch data using one of three methods: sequential
method, batch method, batch quantity zero method.
Sequential Method
Using the sequential method, you send all your format and
batch data at one time. Use this method when your
application does not require operator intervention to input
data. All data is sent down at one time, and the printer then
images each field. As soon as the last field is imaged, your
labels begin to print.
