This command controls flagging. The underscore should be replaced by one of the
following.
N - No Flagging This command turns off flagging for this format.
L – Long / Short This means that two blank tags will appear after a batch is printed
when the tag has a sense mark. The first blank tag is cut long by .23 inches and the
second is cut short by the same amount. These blank tags act as a separator when
the tags are in the printer’s stacker. When there is no sense mark on the tag, the
blank tag is longer by .23 inches than the printed tags.
D - Double length This command produces a flag that is two tags in the pull length.
T - Stock Saving Flag All tags are printed but the cut on the next to last tag is .125
inches short, which makes the last tag .125 inches longer in the pull length. All
tags can be used.
V - Verifier Flag This command is to be used if a verifier is active on the printer. The
batch quantity is increased by 2 and the stock saving feature is activated. The print
is carried over to the flag that prevents the verifier from halting the printer when a
barcode is not scanned.
B - Double blank Flag This command produces a flag that is blank and two tags in the
pull length.
S - Small Flag This command produces a flag that is .078 inches longer than the tag in
the pull length. When the tag has a sense mark, the first tag is cut long by .078
inches and the second is cut short by the same amount.
M - Medium Flag This command produces a flag that is .15 inches longer than the tag
in the pull length. When the tag has a sense mark, the first tag is cut long by .15
inches and the second is cut short by the same amount.
X - Extra Large Flag This command produces a flag that is .31 inches longer than the
tag in the pull length. When the tag has a sense mark, the first tag is cut long by
.31 inches and the second is cut short by the same amount.
Z - Zero length Flag This command produces a flag that is equal to the tag in the pull
length. When the tag has a sense mark, only one tag is generated for the flag.
Compatibility Notes:
630 The 630 does Long / Short flagging but the flags are controlled by the pull length
of the tag and cannot be controlled by this command. Meaning if a tag is less than
1.400” (35.6mm), the batches will be flagged with a Double Length flag. All
batches whose tags are greater than 1.400” (35.6mm)will be flagged with Long /
Short flags. The 630 does not support the B, S, M, X commands.
650 The 650 does not support the T, S, M, X commands.
960 If the 960 is doing a non-sense mark tag and is flagging, the tag pull length cannot
be longer than 5.756” (146.2mm). This tag pull length allows the longer flag to be
created and to be less than the 6” (152.4) maximum for tag pull size. The 960
does not support the T, V, B, S, M, X commands.
6X6, SNAP These printers do not support the D, V, B commands. With the S, M, L, X
commands, it is possible to produce flags with print other than what is printed on
the tags. See the ~FD command definition.
