Printronix ThermaLine Series - Manual (Page 49)

4–5 Commands
The same printable character must be used at both the beginning and end of
the text to be printed and cannot be used within the text.
Spaces
Spaces are used in the general command formats to visually separate
individual command parameters. Supply the appropriate information for the
command parameter, but do not enter the spaces in the command sequence;
they are shown simply as a visual aid to illustrate where one command
parameter ends and another begins.
Command Parameters
Most commands include a number of parameters. Some are optional, and
some are required. Each parameter must be separated by a semicolon (;)
unless noted otherwise. Throughout this manual, actual commands required
for input are shown exactly as they must be entered and all parameters
associated with that command are shown in italics. Optional parameters are
enclosed in brackets [ ], but do not enter the brackets.
Parentheses indicate variable data. You have a choice of what to enter, but
you must enter something. Do not enter the parentheses themselves.
Form Name
You must use alphanumeric characters to identify the document (form or
logo) you are creating (a maximum of 12 alphanumeric characters). The
Form Name is also used to identify the form during the Execute Form mode.
The valid Form Name characters are listed below and also apply to Logo
Name. The SFCC can also be used in the Form Name. No spaces are allowed
between any of the Form Name characters.
