and the ^D73 is the ability to increment and/or decrement sequential numbers
in a batch.
XXX 76
Load Delay Time Between Printed Labels: Delays the printing between
labels in a batch. The “^Axxx” specifies the delay time in tenths of a second
with a maximum value of 650. For example, “^A10^D76” would
introduce a one second delay between printed labels. This command is
typically used in conjunction with the Peel-n-Dispense mode and applicators.
5.7 Label Header Parameter Override Commands
It is possible to override label header parameters by adding one or more of the following
commands after the ^D2 and before the print command.
^A
^D COMMAND
40 Clears Commands 41 through 51

XX
42 Load Label Width in dots (LSX): The ^Axx specifies the value.

43 Load Label Height in dots (LSY): The ^Axx specifies the value.
XX
44 Load the Web Size in dots (WEB): The ^Axx specifies the value.

46 Load Print Speed: The ^Axx specifies the value.
XX
47 Load the Label Control Byte (LCB): The ^Axx specifies the value.
XX
48 Load the Number of Steps to Activate Gap Detector (AGD): The ^Axx
specifies the value in Dot Rows.
XX

in Dot Rows.
XX
50 Load X Direction Offset (OFX): The ^Axx specifies the value.
XX
51 Load Y Direction Offset (OFY): The ^Axx specifies the value.
5.7.1 Serial Number Commands
The following commands, ^D80 through ^D89, are used for the serial number function
commands of the printer. The printer can increment or decrement any single serial number
on the label by any amount. If the format contains more than one serial number, then all
serial number fields can only increment or decrement by a value of one. Single and Multiple
serial number commands cannot be used on the same format. Please note that the ^D57
command clears most of the serial number commands. Therefore, all serial number
commands should be placed after the ^D56 command or just prior to the ^D3 command.
Refer to Section 5.6.1 for additional information regarding the use of the ^D75 command
and the serial number functions.
