Printer status

Relationship between command interpreter, batch processing and printing

Normal label printing puts the printer in the above status. The printer, however,
operates with a double buffer, so if the next printing data is received during batch
processing, both interpreter operation and batch processing (printing) may be
performed simultaneously.

Difference between batch processing and printing

As shown in the diagram, printing start and stop may be repeated within a single
cycle of batch processing. Therefore, use the operations properly (peeling,
auto-cutter, etc.) as required.

Pause

Code

[01] B

Function

Printing temporarily stops and resumes. Toggles printer pause on and
off. Pause on and off by using this command is performed in the same
way as operated from the control panel. Pause on from the control
panel can change to pause off with this command.

Stop/cancel

Code

[01] C

Function

Printing stops. Performed in the same way as operated from the Stop
key on the control panel. With this command, printer stops on
completion of the current printing label and will clear data in the
reception buffer.

SOH command shutdown

Code

[01] D

Function

After receiving this command, printer ignores immediate execution
commands starting with control code [01] even if those commands are
received.

To send nothing for five seconds can automatically cancel the setting.
