should be used. If the printer is equipped with
more than just one paper / label tray, you can con-
trol which is used for printing.
The name of the tray should be acquired from the
printer driver.
PRINTSPEED Use this parameter so specify printing speed. The
value for parameter varies from one printer to
the other. Consult printer's manuals for
numbers.
PRINTDARKNESS Use this parameter so specify printing darkness /
contrast. The value for parameter varies from
one printer to the other. Consult printer's man-
uals for numbers.
PRINTOFFSETX Use this parameter to specify left offset for all
printing objects. The value for parameter must
be numeric, positive or negative, in pixels.
PRINTOFFSETY Use this parameter to specify top offset for all
printing objects. The value for parameter must
be numeric, positive or negative, in pixels.
SETTABLE
SETTABLE =
table_name The name of the currently used table as defined in the program.
value The name of the new table that should be used as data source.
This command allows you to use some other table with the label file and not the one, that was con-

labels, the label template will remain unmodified with connection to the original table.
The new database table must be of the same type as original table. For example, you cannot change
the table from dBase to Paradox. The structure of new table has to be identical to the original one.
You can use table from the database that is already connected to the label or from some entirely dif-
ferent database.
TEXTQUALIFIER

Text-qualifier is the character that embeds a data value that is assigned to a variable. If the data
value includes space characters, it must be included in the text-qualifier. Otherwise only the data
until the first encountered space character is assigned to the variable.
The default delimiter for the command SET is double-quote character. Because the double-quote
character is used as shortcut for inch unit of measure, sometimes it is difficult to pass the data with
inch marks in the JOB files.
The work-around is to use the double double-quote character instead of just one, but in this case
already the incoming data stream needed to be changed. You can leave the incoming data stream as-
is and change the delimiter you want to use.
For example:
