p c l O p e n
Description
Loads MPCL packets from the specified file. Generally you use
this function for fixed packets, such as formats. An application
can call this function as often as needed. It is not necessary to
open a particular file more than once in an application.
Syntax
short far pclOpen(char far* lpszFileName);
Parameters
lpszFileName The fully-qualified path for the file containing the
MPCL packets. If it is in the same directory as the
application’s .EXE file, specify only the file name.
You must use the drive that the printer recognizes.
For example, if the files are on the PC’s C: drive, but
the printer refers to it as B:, use B: in the path.
Return Values
0 Successful.
Non-zero An error occurred. For errors between 703-793, the
operator corrects the printer condition. Then the
application must call pclClearError to reset the Motion
Control subsystem. Refer to the MPCL
Packet
Reference Manual for more information.
