4.5.3 Step by Step Modification of the Printer Setup
The following is an example of Printer Setup modification. Although this example will detail how to modify the serial
Baud Rate, the same method can be used to change any of the printer’s menu item settings.

enabled. Depending on label size this can cause unpredictable results.

PAUSE +
