enabled. See Installation and Configuration in Section 2 of this manual.

The <NUL> represents the ASCII 00 Hex character and can be interchanged
with a tilde character.

product of the cut value and the print quantity. For example: If the cut value is
2 and the print quantity is 20 then 20 sets of two labels will be printed.
