10. Memory Cards
Preparing the Memory Card
In order to use the memory card the first time, the card must be formatted for
the printer to read and write data. Often the cards are preformatted for use
with the printer.
If the card you are using is not formatted, the printer will display either
"Unknown card" or "Structural err" on the front display. If the message is
displayed, you must format the card using one of the following methods:
1. Format the card using the printer's "Format card" option in the Offline
menu (see "Memory card options in the Offline Menu" section).
2. Format the card sending the software command "Mf;name CR" (see the
Programming Manual for more information) through the connected
interface.
3. Format the card using a FlashCard drive on a PC.
Writing to the Memory Card
There are different methods to write formats to a memory card.
The most secure and practical method to write to the memory card is the
printer's interface.
For saving a label to the memory card using direct programming, place the
"Ms" command at the beginning and end of your format:
Ms LBL;ABC
Command to save a file called ABC"
J
|
H 100,0,T
|
S l1;0,0,68,71,104
|
Contents of the file "ABC"
T 10,10,0,3,pt15;Memory card |
A 1[NOPRINT]
|
Ms LBL
End of Save File command
After processing the commands, the format "ABC" is stored on the memory
card
The [NOPRINT] parameter after the A command suppresses the printing of a
label while saving the file to the memory card. Whenever the file "ABC" is
accessed from the memory card, one label will be printed. If you want the
operator to specify an amount of labels to be printed, move the A command
statement after the second "Ms" command in the example above.
