Appendix C: ^D Command Summary
5 NULLS + 01: The 5 NULL method commands are a way to pass commands to the
printer even when the printer in configured in binary compression mode.
The command is sent to the printer as HEX characters; 00 00 00 00 00
01 are sent to the printer in order to issue the command. This command
is used to request the printer’s status and is very similar to the ^E
command. The biggest difference between this command and the ^E is
that when printers are configured for binary compression (D23 -SW3 bit
7), which is required if saving graphics, the ^E will not function. This
means that if the printer is going to be using binary compression, the 5
NULL’s method should be used to request status instead of the ^E
command.
5 NULLS + 02: The 5 NULL method commands are a way to pass commands to the
printer even when the printer in configured in binary compression mode.
The command is sent to the printer as HEX characters; 00 00 00 00 00
02 are sent to the printer in order to issue the command. This command
is used to cancel pending jobs/commands and to remotely clear errors
returning the printer to an idle >READY< state. If the condition causing
the original error condition still exists, sending new jobs will cause the
printer to go back into an error condition. This command simply
provides the ability to remotely clear error conditions and return the
printer to a state that allows normal communication.
5 NULLS + 04: This command is sent to the printer as HEX characters; 00 00 00 00 00
04 to clear the >TAKE LABEL< condition. The >TAKE LABEL< status
message is issued when the printer is being used with a ^D97 or ^D98
dispense mode and LTS sensor is detecting media. The
communication channel is disabled until the media is taken under
normal circumstances so this command is provided to bypass the
communication and clear the status. After issuing this command, the
media will retract the ^D95 distance and the printer’s normal
communication will return.
The following is the list of ^D commands in numeric order:
^A ^D COMMAND
2 Text String Entry Mode : Precedes the text strings that are supplied to the
various fields in the format (Equivalent to ^B).
3 Print Command : Prints a single label or starts the printing of a batch of labels
(Equivalent to ^C).
5 Send Printer Status : (Equivalent to ^E).
7 Update printer flash : This command is used to update the printer’s software
which includes the application, the bootloader, and the embedded fonts.
