(see Appendix S).
3 PL-Z

Mark II, which is standard).


“Printer Defaults” should be chosen to minimize
potential conflicts.

Character strings are parsed for PL-B processing, applicable
only if the appropriate firmware is installed, as indicated by a
“B” in the version string.
9 Auto

according to the identified language.

may cause the language to be unrecognizable;
otherwise, the appropriate Input Mode must be
selected.
