Enter Heat Setting Offset (STX b)

This command changes the "on time" of dots on the printhead. The printer
powers up with a default setting determined from the media type installed.
Varying this number changes the amount of time the dots are "turned on" which
in turn changes the amount of heat transferred from the printhead to the media.
The range of valid settings is -5 to +5 that corresponds to an offset of +/- 500
microseconds. This command is helpful when the printer is used with several
different media types. When a label format is sent to the printer and the media
requires more or less heat than the amount set by the default temperature, the host
device can send a command before or after the format to correct the heat setting
for the media being used.

Disable Feeding to Cut Position after Print (STX C)

This command will stop the printer from feeding to the cut position after printing.
This command should only be used in conjunction with STX c. This is used to
send multiple print commands without feeding to the cut position after each print.
The STX c command is sent at the end to feed to the cut position and re-enable
feeding to the cut position for all future print commands.
<STX>C
Feedback possibilities (only sent if feedback characters are turned on): 0,1, or 2
