Chapter 5 Printer Commands
428LT Operator’s Manual - 880040-0200 5-43
^A ^D COMMAND
XX 64 Auto-Print String Count: This command is used in conjunction with the
^A1^D63 auto-print command. The ^Axx specifies the number of text strings
(carriage returns) to accept before issuing the print command. When the
printer is in the auto-print mode, it is not necessary to send the ^D2 command
to enter text or the ^D3 command to initiate printing. The printer will accept
incoming text strings and print the label as soon as the number of strings
equal the amount specified by the ^D64 command.
The following is an example of the ^D61, ^D63, and ^D64 commands:
^A0^D64<CR>
