Commands
Setup
Purpose
Automatically executes and loads IGP/PGL commands such as forms,
logos, customized print environments, etc., from external memory to the
printer whenever printer power is applied or when the RESET command
(page 4–85) is sent.
Mode
NORMAL
Format
(cc)SETUP
HOST DATA
(cc)SETUPEND
(cc)
The Special Function Control Character.
SETUP
The Setup command; enter SETUP.
HOST DATA
Any IGP/PGL commands, form definitions, text, etc.
to be stored and executed at power–up.
SETUPEND
Finishes storing host data and returns the printer to the
NORMAL mode. Enter SETUPEND.
Comments
Because the RESET command causes the setup routine to be executed, the
RESET command can not be in the SETUP information or else an infinite
loop will occur.
If IGP/PGL commands have not been added between the SETUP and
SETUPEND commands, the SETUP.PTX file in the IGP/PGL external
memory module is automatically deleted, and no IGP/PGL SETUP
commands are executed upon printer power–up.
NOTE: The SETUP.PTX is automatically created by the IGP/PGL when the
~SETUPEND command is received. When the SETUP.PTX file is
not in external memory, no extra IGP/PGL commands are
performed on power up.
