f
Set Present Speed
(Non-Display Models only)
This command controls the rate at which the present distance is positioned, allowing the
media movement to be slowed during “presentation” (the distance traveled after printing
is completed to the label stop position). This command is used only within the context of
a label format. The speed assigned is retained until another label format is received or
until power is removed; if a subsequent format does not contain a present speed
command then the present speed reverts to the feed speed.
Syntax:
fa
Where:
a
- Is a single alpha character representing a speed,
limited by the feed speed range; see Appendix L. The
default is the feed speed.
Sample:
fA
191100200830165Fixed Data Field 1
E
191100200830165Fixed Data Field 1
E
The sample above prints two labels; the first label has present
speed of 1 inch per second, while the second reverts to the feed
speed of 4 inches per second.
G
Place Data in Global Register
The “G” command saves the print data of a print format record in a global register
(temporary storage). This data may be retrieved and copied to another record in the
same label format using the special Label Formatting Command:
registers are named in the order received, beginning with Register A, ending at Register
P, and incrementing with each instance of the G command use.
Syntax:
G
Sample:
121100000000000Testing
G
1A2210001000000
E
The sample above stores, retrieves, and prints the data in global
register A. One label is printed with “Testing” in two locations.
