Chapter 5 Printer Commands
428M Operator’s Manual - 880028-0112 5-37
^A ^D COMMAND
121 Top of Form Command.
This command initiates a TOF operation:
a) Media is advanced until the leading edge is detected by the reflective
“Top Of Form” sensor,
b) Media is retracted to place the leading edge of stock under the print
head.
This command is useful when using the Au Top of Form command.
XX 123 Set TOF Retract Distance: When a TOF operation is in process, the
paper moves forward until its leading edge is seen by the TOF sensor. As
soon as the sensor sees the paper, the printer stops the forward motion of the
paper and begins to move the paper in reverse toward the print head. This
command sets how far the media is moved back into the printer after the
leading edge is seen by the TOF sensor. The valid range for the TOF retract
distance is from 1 to 900.
5.6 Printing Commands
The following commands initiate printing, define the number of labels to be printed or control
how the printer initiates printing.
5.6.1 Basic Printing Commands
.^A
^D COMMAND
3 Print Command: (Equivalent ^C) Informs the printer to print a single label or
start printing a batch of labels. Since commands are processed in the order
they are received, this is typically the last command in the format file. This
command is equivalent to the “^C” control code.
11 Print Test Pattern: (Equivalent ^K) Prints a label with diagonal lines that is
used in determining the condition of the thermal dots of the print head. This
command is equivalent to the “^K” control code.
12 Form Feed: (Equivalent ^L) Prints or scrolls a blank form based upon the
previous format definitions. This command is equivalent to the “^L” control
code.
70 Clear Commands 73-76: Resets the ^D73 through ^D76 commands to their
default values.
XX 73 Load Copies Count: Instructs the printer to print multiple copies without
incrementing serial numbers. This command can be used in conjunction with
the ^D75 (Load Label Count) to allow duplicate copies to be made within a
batch of labels. For example, the following command string will print a total of
150 labels; three copies of each serial number for the 50 different labels.
(^A3^D73^A50^D75^D3<CR>)
1 74 Infinity Print: Prints a batch of labels until the printer is turned off. This
