Configuration Set
This command specifies the Power-up Configuration parameter values for the printer and
is equivalent to using other system commands followed by the
is intended for easily configuring a custom setup, but NOT for dynamic
configuration changes. Configuration commands are examined for differences
relative to the current configuration, and have no impact when no differences exist.
Printers will reset upon completion of a command stream containing parameter value
changes. In any case, no commands should be sent to the printer until this reset is
complete. Other command highlights include the following:
•
These parameter values are equivalent to changing the respective menu settings and
do not affect the factory default settings of the printer.
•
If separated by a semi-colon (;), multiple parameter values may be sent in a single
command stream; see sample below.
•
All values are stored in Flash memory and remain in effect until new values are
received or until factory defaults are restored.
•
If system commands are sent that override the Power-up Configuration value(s), the
Power-up Configuration value(s) will be restored the next time the printer is powered
“On” or is reset.
•
These parameters are the same as those found in the Menu System (display-
equipped models). The respective functions are documented in the appropriate
Operator’s Manual. Not all commands are effective on all printers.
Illegal or out of range parameter values may have unpredictable results. In addition,
media sensing scaling values, TOF Bias, etc. may not be effective on other same-type
printers due to hardware tolerances.
