Chapter 5 Printer Commands

When enabled, the Stock Class (SW#7 bits 1-3) and Width (SW#7 bits
456) must be set properly in order for the STL Emulation to function
properly.
1 = Enable STL Emulation
0 = Disable STL Emulation
3 Enable Pre-Stock Out feature: This command supports the PSO
option and is used to detect stock out errors using an optional sensor
before the media enters the printer. Once enabled, when the PSO
(>INPUT 1<) sensor goes active the printer will finish printing the
current label, not cut it (if using a cutter command), then feed he stock
until it clears the dot row plus 1/2". At this point the normal stock out
function will be active and the printer status will respond with: >LOW
STOCK<>INPUT 1< (if the polarity of input one is set correctly).
1 = Enable AutoHeader
0 = Disable AutoHeader
4 Enable >STOCK NOT LOADED< Response: When enabled, the
printer will return >STOCK NOT LOADED< or 0x22 (depending on the
^D21 response mode configuration) to status requests if media is not
detected in the printer at powerup. The status message will continue to
be reported until media is installed in the printer. This message will
only be reported if media is not detected by the internal sensors
following a power on, reboot command (^D143), and/or restart (^D32)
commands.
1 = Enable >STOCK NOT LOADED< response
0 = Disable >STOCK NOT LOADED< response
5 48-466 Compatibility Mode: A special limited 466/48-466 LDS
compatibility mode has been developed for the X24/X24M code base.
The objective of this compatibility mode is to allow applications that use
formats and/or commands developed for a Model 48-466 printer to be
sent to a 203 dpi X24 or X24M Model printer with little or no changes
required. This command allows the printer to enable a limited 48-466
emulation feature of the printer. When enabled, the printer will process
a 48-466 data stream and convert the data stream for proper operation
on an X24M printer. The emulation mode uses a lookup table for fonts
stored in flash and does not use the TCI 1 embedded fonts while this
mode is enabled. Please note that the X24 products store fonts in 0
/180 degree rotation and in 180/270 degree rotation. The odd memory
slots denote 0 or 180 degree rotation fonts while the even memory slots
denote 90/270 degree rotated fonts. The flash memory slot locations
are shown below:
