Print Commands
Advanced Mode, Select
Purpose To switch the printer to Advanced Mode.
Syntax
<ESC>Cn
Supported Based on testing, this command works the same on the Zebra printer with
APL-I firmware as on the 3400D printer.
Notes When switching between Advanced Mode (default) and Emulation Mode, all entered
data is lost. Page 0 is the default page, and the field pointer selects the first field in format 0.
Alphanumeric Field Separator
Purpose To increase/decrease alphanumeric characters in a field separated domain.
Syntax
<GS>
Supported Based on testing, this command works the same on the Zebra printer with
APL-I firmware as on the 3400D printer.
Notes It is possible to have numerous data regions in one field as long as they do not
overlap. Each region separately increments or decrements depending on the value entered for
the specific field. Data length remains the same when setting values of increments or
decrements. Values increase or decrease in a circular motion, that is, 9 increases to 0. The
command identifies the areas of character to increase or decrease without actual changes.
Important • The printer does not recognize non-alphanumeric values.
Batch Count, Set
Purpose To identify the amount of labels to print in the next batch.
Syntax
<US>n
Supported Based on testing, this command works the same on the Zebra printer with
APL-I firmware as on the 3400D printer.
Notes When it is used the printer, it prints a certain amount of the same label. The amount is
calculated by multiplying the number of batches by the amount in each batch.
Important If the amount is out of range, an error code 21 is generated.
