16 RFID Command

RFID commands can be used only in printers equipped with the RFID option. A command error occurs if the RFID
option is not provided.
The continuous mode, cutter mode, dispenser mode and tear-off mode are available when the printer is operated in
the RFID mode.
Reading and return of data cannot be performed with other than <RU> and [DC2]PK when backfeed is selected before
printing in the cutter mode and dispenser mode, when the tear-off mode is specified, and when the tag offset is set to
other than default. Refer to the table below for the relationship between the print mode and the RFID read/write
command.

Print restraint function at the time of command error
You can select whether or not to print by the command error restraint (COMMAND_ERROR_BEHAVIOR) in
[RFID] section in RFID mode [DC2]PA command when command error occurred in the item containing RFID
print command (<IP0>, <TU>).
The default setting after downloading the program and after default clear is "Do not print".
When "Do not print" is selected and a command error occurs in the item containing the RFID print command, the
printer discards the item, halts printing, and then goes OFFLINE, displays the error, and stops.
If the printer shows this screen and stops after sending the item containing the RFID print command, there is a
section where the command error occurs in the item.
