Unit 5: Optional Command Codes

MEMORY CARD COMMANDS

CARD SLOT FOR USE
FUNCTION Specifies the card slot for use.
FORMAT
<ESC>CCa
Place immediately following <ESC>A.
EXAMPLE <ESC>A
<ESC>CC1
<ESC>Z
OUTPUT There is not a printer output as a result of this command.
NOTES Specify this command for memory card function. When the card is not inserted, a card
error will occur.
GL For the GL4xxe architecture, the command parameter can be 1 or 2.
SPECIFIC
The value refers to either the Memory Cartridge or the Flash memory on the main
DATA
PCB. This is assigned in USER MODE via the printer's operation panel LCD.
In USER MODE, the menu item "Mem Select (CC1)" can be used to define the
numbers 1 and 2 to the memory cartridge and flash memory interchangeably.
So, if the memory cartridge has been assigned the value of 1, a <ESC>CC1
sequence will be defining the memory cartridge as the card slot to be used for
subsequent data storage.
If the flash memory was assigned a value of 1 instead, then a <ESC>CC1 sequence
will be defining the flash memory as the memory to be used for subsequent data
storage.
