APL-I firmware as on the 3400D printer.
Notes You must set the parameter for this command to the field number or the field name.
Things to be aware of:
• If you do not set the 3parameter, the printer defaults it to 0.
• If you choose the field number, the printer enters data into field n.
• If you enter a field name, the printer enters the data into a field with a particular name.
• You must enclose the field name in quotation marks.
• Entering an invalid field code generates error code 38.
