Creating MS-DOS Batch Files for Downloading

If you are downloading from an MS-DOS PC, you can create
batch files to set communication values and download formats.
It is a good idea to create a subdirectory to hold your format
files for this printer.

Here is a DOS batch file that sets a serial port, changes to a
subdirectory, and downloads a check digit file, format, and
batch data.

MODE COM1:9600,N,8,1,P
CD\MONARCH
COPY LABEL1.CDS COM1
COPY LABEL1.FMT COM1
COPY LABEL1.BCH COM1

Refer to your MS-DOS manual for more information on creating
batch files.

Backing up Formats and Batches

Keep backup copies of your formats and batches.

Contact your Monarch Sales or Customer Support
representative for further suggestions.
