(PA) Present Adjust –
This command fine-tunes the Present Distance setting in dots to
compensate for slight mechanical differences sometimes evident if multiple printers share label
formats. The

EX2

accepts this command for backward compatibility only, limited in range (28-

228). KcQQQ response shows the

Present Adjust Fine Tune

(PJ) equivalent value.





(PC) Print Contrast –
This command adjusts the relative print edge (gray) component of the print
quality, which allows fine-tuning for specific media/ribbon mix.




(PD) Present Distance –
This command sets the label stop position past the start of print. When
the next label format is received, the printer will automatically backfeed to the start position. If
the present distance is set to zero, the printer will operate without reversing. (See Stop Location,
below).




(PE) Peel Mode –
This command, when enabled, specifies that a Feed operation be prevented
when the label is presented and not removed, or if the printer is to wait for the GPIO start of print
signal.
