^D202 Print Example #1
The “^D202 Print Example #1” illustrates what the sample script listed above would
generate if recalled using the “^D350) command (“^D350)test”).
^D202 Print Example #2
^A) <-- start script
^D202)test <--
recalls file “test”
^T3)Print Sample <-- replace ^T3 data
^D300)1 <-- print 1 copy
^Z) <-- end script
The “^D202 Print Example #2” illustrates recalling the script from Example #1 (“test”) and
then replacing the data in text field #3 (“^T3”) from “Example” to “Print Sample”.
^D202 Print Example #3
^A) <-- start script
^D597)1 <-- advance after print
^D202)test <-- recalls fi
le “test”
^T1) <-- replace/delete ^T1 data
^T3)Print Sample <-- replace ^T3 data
^D300)2 <-- print 2 copies
^Z) <-- end script
The “^D202 Print Example #3” illustrates adding a ^D command, recalling the script from
Example #1 (“test”), replacing text field #1 with blank space, replacing the data in text field
#3 (“^T3”) from “Example” to “Print Sample”, and increasing how many copies are printed
(“^D300)2”).
2.3 3xx Series Commands
The 3xx series commands control basic operation and list commands. Commands will
return the current status and/or setting if the ^Dxx command is entered without an
argument. The ^D3xx series commands are also required to be sent each and every time
because persistent or values set outside a script file are not retained. Entering a question
mark (“?”) after the ^Dxx command causes the printer to report the commands current
setting as well as the verbose description and help text associated with that particular
command.
