6. Box Field

Intermec EasyCoder 301 Direct Protocol 2.0 – Programmer's Guide Ed. 3
A box is a hollow square or rectangle that can be rotated with an
increment of 90 according to the print direction. If the line thick-
ness is sufficiently large, the box will appear to be filled (another
method is to print an extremely thick short line).
In addition to the general formatting commands, PRPOS, ALIGN
and DIR, a box field is specified by a single command.
Set Size of the Box
The size of the box is specified with regard to height, width and line
weight (thickness).
