STX G Print Last Label Format
This command prints a previously formatted label and restarts a canceled batch job
following the last processed label. This is used when there is a label format in the buffer.
The E command is used to enter the quantity. (Without the E command, one
label will print.)
Syntax: G
STX I Input Image Data
This command must precede image downloading from the host to the printer. The data
that immediately follows the command string will be image data.
 The native format for storing downloaded PCX and BMP images is RLE-2, which results
in a better compression ratio for less module space usage when downloading gray-scale
images and images with large black or white areas.
