COMMAND 56: SHARED PORT INlTlALlZATlON STRING

Allows the user to define an initialization string of up to 25 bytes which are

stored in the memory of the interface card and sent to the printer at the
beginning of any printing received from the alternate shared port.

VALUE DESCRlPTlON

1

Following the value number, insert a parenthesis, followed by

the hex bytes included in the command string, and then a

parenthesis to end.

NOTES: To aid in readability, a single space is allowed between hex bytes but

is not included in the string.

The string could specify a special font selection command or other

custom command to be sent directly to the printer prior to the data
that is received from the parallel shared port.

To change the initialization string simply input the new command
values. The entire old string is automatically erased.

To delete the initialization string from the NV memory, simply put

nothing between the parentheses.

EXAMPLE: &%Z56,1( )

Deletes from NV memory any hex string that had
been previously defined for the parallel port
initialization string.

COMMAND 57: COAX PORT lNlTIALlZATlON STRING

Allows the user to define an initialization string of up to 25 bytes. This string is

stored in the memory of the interface card and is sent to initialize the printer for

coax port printing after printing from the shared parallel port has occurred.

The interface also, after the initialization string, sends commands to restore the

default or host defined page format parameters prior to coax port printing.

VALUE DESCRIPTION

1

Following the value number, insert a parenthesis, followed by

the hex bytes included in the command string, and then a

parenthesis to end.
