PRODUCT MARKING AND BARCODE IDENTIFICATION

m - set measuring unit

This command sets the measuring unit for the following label data.
Once it is sent, all following settings in a label are measured in the selected unit.
The printer´s default value depends on the selected display language. For all selectable countries the
measurement is millimeters, with the exception when country USA was set through the control panel.
We recommend to use this command always, especially for international companies where different
programmers create labels as the measuring unit is only changed for the individual label being
printed.
The measuring unit cannot change within one label. All internal calculations are processed in
millimeters, as these values are better to overview and they follow a worldwide standard.
