Appendix G
The PTX_SETUP Commands
General Commands
The original PTX_SETUP commands were implemented on the disk-based
legacy laser printers; however, many commands are also supported for
thermal printers. This section describes the existing commands which work
across all platforms, and provides a general description of how commands
are formed.
Each emulation has modes in which the PTX_SETUP commands could get
missed. For this reason, it is highly recommended that all PTX_SETUP
commands be placed between print jobs, rather than attempting to imbed
them within jobs.
PTX_SETUP commands have the following format:
(SFCC)PTX_SETUP
Command–Sub Command;Value
PTX_END
For example, if the SFCC assigned to PTX_SETUP is the default value of the
exclamation mark (!, hex 21), and you wanted to load configuration number 4
and capture all incoming data to a file named “BIN”, you would use the
following command:
!PTX_SETUP
CONFIG–LOAD;4 FILE_IO–CAPTURE;BIN
PTX_END
Table 32 lists all the command, sub-command, and parameter combinations
and gives a brief description of the command. This section documents the
existence of PTX_SETUP commands which work across all platforms. The
following sections document commands which are specific to thermal.
NOTE:
When a file system error occurs, a message will be displayed on the
front panel indicating the error, and the action needed to take to
correct the error.
