One of the possible ways to prepare label consists in following stages:
•
In case of work in DOS, by command MODE is determined the operation
mode via the PC serial interface in accordance to the printer settings.
Example: mode COMn: baud=m parity=n data=8 stop=1
Where: n is the serial port number and m is the baud rate.
•
For correct work, before setting the new form name, start with command
(FK) to delete form with the desired name (in this way if there is form with
the same name it will be deleted and replaced with the new one).
•
When working with continuous paper roll the exact label length and space
between labels must be determined. When the paper roll is composite of
separate labels the beginning and the end of the label are determined
automatically by the paper sensor. In the beginning of the command string
the command (Q) with the desired parameters must be placed. Can be
added, also, commands for code table choice (I), starting point (R), density
(D) and printing width (q).
•
The general label view and parts, that aren’t variables and counters or
subject of change, must be determined.
•
Set the variables that are about to change in every label. These one, that
are integers and have constant increment step are counters. All the rest
must be variables (without constant increment step). In certain cases the
information about barcode or caption consist several counters and / or
variables.
•
Determine the counters and variables. Define maximum length and line
alignment (when shorter than maximum length). Define increment step for
counters. It is good to use comment text for easier form changes later. Add
the variables with commands (C) or (V) for every counter in the command
text file.
•
Add graphics by choosing filename, location and printing position by the
command (GG) in the text file. The graphic must be in monochrome PCX
format, which is prepared with suitable PC program and must be uploaded
to the printer in advance (before form execution). The command for loading
(GM) requires the graphic file size. Manual PCX file load is also possible by
command COPY in DOS (COPY /B filename COMn: ). The file is sent
obligatory as binary, where n is the serial port number.
•
Determine the font, its position and caption direction by adding the (А)
command. If it’s necessary add modification operator for the counters text
to get the desired print strings.
