S - Set Label
S
ize
This command defines the width and length of a label and has some additional options.
S[ptype;]xo,yo,ho,dy,wd[,dx,col][;name]
CR
S = Set label size
ptype; =
photocell type. Sets the type of label sensing. Optional
parameter.
It is recommended to set it in the label definition.
e =
endless (continuous) label material without die cuts. Labels
sensor is switched off and the height is measured by the
amount of micro steps of the printer´s transport motor.
Important: the following character is a lower case L followed either by 0,1 or 2 !!
l0 =
senses the reflective marker on the upper side of the label
material. The l0 option is available only on Apollo 1.
l1 =
sets the printer´s sensors for die cut labels with gap
l2 =
senses the reflective marker on the lower side of the label
material.
xo=
horizontal displacement, shifts the starting point (zero point) of all
horizontal measurements to the left margin of the label.
yo = vertical displacement, shifts the starting point (zero point) of all
vertical measurements to the top margin of the label.
ho = height of the label in transportation direction.
dy = height of the label plus height of the gap. (Distance from the starting
point of the label to the starting point of the next label)
wd = label width measured from the right margin to the left margin.
Optional parameters when multiple labels are placed horizontally
dx = defines the distance from the margin of the first label to the
second label in horizontal direction
col = number of labels horizontally (default value =1)
name = optional text which is shown in the printer´s display. Can be used
i.e. to display the required label material which has to be inserted.
S l1;0,0,50,52,100
Defines a label size of 50 mm height, distance from one label to the next label (label gap) is
52 mm and the width of the label is 100 mm. Displacement horizontal and vertical is zero.
All numeric values are either in millimeters or in inches, dependend on the selected country setting of
the printer or depending on the "m " command.
Maximum values dependon the width of the printhead and on the amount of memory which is
responsible for the maximum height of the label. Both parameters depend on the used printer type.
Please refer to the operator´s manual for more information.
