Label Formatting Command Functions
Class Series Programmer’s Manual 118
Q Set Quantity of Labels to Print
This command sets the number of the label copies to be printed. A one to five digit value is allowed,
if the command is delimited by a carriage return . This permits host applications to generate
label quantity commands without the need to pad leading zeros. (A four-digit command value does
not need to be terminated.)
Syntax: Qnnnnn
Where: nnnnn - Is a one to five-digit delimited value setting for the number of
labels to be printed. The default value is one.
Sample: L
121100000000000Testing
Q0020
E
The sample will print a batch of 20 identical labels.
 Note: (All models, except E-Class) Specifying 9999 as the four-digit quantity causes continuous printing.
R Set Row Offset Amount
This command allows vertical adjustment of the point where printing begins. The printer is instructed
to print label formats nnnn units above the position that the format specifies. This feature is useful
when a single format is to be printed on labels containing preprinted information.
 Notes: (1) If using preprinted labels where the placement of the preprint data varies from label to label,
the printed information may overlap the preprinted data.
(2) If printing near the TOF is important (i.e., on very small labels, or in very tight formats), it may
be necessary to use the ROW ADJUST setting to shift the vertical start of print position in the
negative direction.
Syntax: Rnnnn
Where:
nnnn
- Is a four-digit number (0000-9999) for the row offset, in
inches/100 or millimeters/10. The printer default is 0.
Sample:
L
R0037
141100001000100SAMPLE LABEL
E
The sample prints a label with a row offset amount of .37 inches, unless in metric mode.
