Print Command: Guidelines
•
Use the correct terms for global and field options (for example, QSTOPn or WIDEn
where n indicates a number in the range). If a global or field option is entered
incorrectly, the print request is rejected.
For more information, see the appropriate
global or field option on the following pages.
•
A single print command can be used for multiple print lines; therefore, you do not need to
enter Print each time another line of text is printed.
Print Command: Specifying Global Options
The following global options are available for the Print command:
BACKnnn
Back Global Option
Format
BACKnnn
(1 Function Backs the paper up nnn dotlines before printing. Example {PRINT,BACK50:@10,30:MF107|Hi world|} QSTOPnnn Qstop Global Option Format QSTOPnnn (1 Function Stops nnn dotlines after sensing the Q mark. When the Q mark is found, the paper advances by nnn dotlines and stops, even if the image is not yet complete. If the Q mark is not found, the printer continues to advance; therefore, use the STOP option when stop conditions are larger than the desired image. The value of nnn ranges from 1 to 65,535 dotlines. QSTOP Bnnn - QMark bottom QSTOP Tnnn - QMark top QSTOP Gnnn - QMark gap QSTOP N - Ignore QMark The commands notes above override label and sensor congiuration settings in the printer. Note: When the paper is properly aligned, the Q mark cannot be positioned below the sensor. For more information, refer to Specifications in the Datamax-O’Neil Thermal Programming Guide. Example {PRINT,QSTOP500:@10,30:MF107|Hi world|} ROTxxx Rotate Global Option Format ROT270, ROT180, ROT090 Function Rotates the image with the left edge of the image printing first either 270, 180, or 90 degrees. Example {PRINT,ROT270:@10,30:MF107|Hi world|}
