Software Command Syntax
The commands in this section are grouped after what they do, and these groups are sorted in a
theoretical usage sequence. It starts with commands for specifying the printed page — through
text-and-graphics commands — to cut-and-present commands. System and status commands
are presented at the end.
Page Setup
Page setup is performed with parameters instead of dedicated commands. This makes it
possible to store the setup in the non-volatile parameter memory. To minimize doubling of
functions the page setup commands have been removed from this manual. The parameters to
use are described under

(disregarding the setting of parameter 34).
