Intermec EasyCoder E4 – User's Guide
You can print labels using the Intermec InterDriver, Intermec
LabelShop, or the EasyCoder E4 Direct Protocol programming
language.
If you are using the Intermec InterDriver for the EasyCoder E4:
• Design a label in, for example, MS Offi ce or Intermec
LabelShop.
• Enter the number of copies required in the InterDriver appli-
cation.
• Send the label to print.
If you are using some version of Intermec LabelShop:
• Follow the instructions in the manual for the version of
LabelShop installed in your PC.
If you are using EasyCoder E4 Direct Protocol, there are two
ways to prepare and print a label. These methods allow the
EasyCoder E4 also to be used with other operating systems than
the various versions of Microsoft Windows.
• Type instructions in the Direct Protocol programming lan-
guage into a terminal program, which sends them to the
printer one instruction at a time. To print a label, send a
PRINTFEED command.
• Type instructions in the Direct Protocol programming lan-
guage into a text editor and send the resulting text fi le to
the printer using DOS Copy or a terminal program. If you
include a PRINTFEED command in your fi le, the printer will
print the label immediately.
You can tell the printer how many copies you want by adding
a number to the PRINTFEED command, for example PRINT-
FEED 22.
When you have sent a label to the printer, it will be printed
out whenever you send a PRINTFEED command. If you switch
off the printer or send any command starting a new label, the
previous label format will be lost.
If you have enabled the Feed button to work as a print button
using a PRINT KEY ON command, a new copy of the label
presently stored in the image buffer will be printed each time you
press the Feed button.
See the EasyCoder E4 Direct Protocol, Programmer's Reference
Manual for further information.
