Label Formatting Command Functions
138 Class Series 2 Programmer’s Manual
X Terminate Label Formatting Mode
This command causes the printer, when in label formatting mode, to immediately switch
to the system command mode and generate a label format based on the data received
at that point. However, unlike the “E” command, it will
not print a label. (Other
termination commands are the “E” and “s”.)
Syntax:
X
Sample:
<STX>L<CR>
141100001000100SAMPLE<CR>
X<CR>
The sample above will result in a label format, but no label will be
printed.
y Select Font Symbol Set
This command, like the
<STX>y
, selects the scalable font symbol set. The selected
symbol set remains active until another symbol set is selected; see the
<STX>y
command for details.
Syntax:
ySxx
S
- Byte-size designation; see Appendix H:
S = Single byte symbol sets; and,
U = Double byte symbol sets.
Where:
xx
- Symbol set selection.
Sample:
<STX>L
ySSW<CR>
The sample above selects the Swedish symbol set for use in
format records using scalable fonts.
