Printhead Dot Pattern Test Label (Stx T); Send Binary Touch Cell Data (Stx T) - Brady TLS PC Link Programmer's Manual

<STX>G
This example will print 3 serialized labels: "TEST01", "TEST02", and
"TEST03". The label length is 0.5" and the spacing between labels is set to zero.
Feedback Possibilities: 0,1,2

Printhead Dot Pattern Test Label (STX T)

This command instructs the printer to print a dot pattern test label. To view the
full test pattern use the media as wide as the print width and at least 1.5-in. (38.1-
mm) long.
Sending this command will clear the current label format that is stored.
Sample:
<STX>T
Feedback possibilities: 1,2,6,7,8,A,B,C,D,E,F,G

Send Binary Touch Cell Data (STX t)

This command instructs the printer to send the touch cell data from the media as
32 bytes of binary (8-bit) data. A few of these bytes contain useful information
about the print media as follows:
Byte 2,3:
Byte 6:
Byte 7,8:
Byte 9,10:
Byte 11,12: Width of label in pixels as a 16-bit value
Byte 13,14: Length of label in pixels as a 16-bit value
Sample:
<STX>t

Label quantity remaining as a 16-bit value
Bit 0 is set for notched labels and clear for continuous
