Setup files
Two commands are used to set a printer up from a setup file: SETUP
WRITE and SETUP.
Use a setup string (as described above) to set up the printer. Then
use the SETUP WRITE command to save the current printer setup
to a file.
SETUP WRITE "<filename>"
<filename>
You can then select the stored setup file, using the SETUP com-
mand.
SETUP "<filename>"
<filename>
Examples:
SETUP WRITE "setup1"
SETUP "setup3"
Bar Code Wand
Setting up the printer with the Bar Code Wand does not involve
using Intermec Direct Protocol.
See the EasyCoder 301 Installation and Operation manual for de-
tails on using the Bar Code Wand to set up the printer.
The sensitivity of the LSS ( Label Stop Sensor) can be manually
adjusted to detect gaps or black marks properly. Another way to do
this is to issue a TESTFEED instruction, but that involves feeding
out labels, which may be undesired in some cases.
The detection range is 0 –31. Increase the value to make the LSS
more sensitive and vice versa. The present threshold value will be
returned on the serial channel using the instruction PRINT SYSVAR
(8), also see chapter 7.6.
SYSVAR (8) = <threshold value>
<threshold value>
