Intermec Shell is a so called startup program (also called "autoexec-
fi le"), i.e. a program that automatically starts running when the
printer is turned on. Intermec Shell helps the operator to choose
between a number of standard or custom-made application programs
and to start certain useful facilities, as listed below.
Application Programs
• Intermec LabelShop
• Intermec Windows Driver
• Intermec Fingerprint
• Intermec Direct Protocol
• LINE_AXP.PRG
• Other application programs in the printer's memory
Other Facilities
• Setup Mode
• Print Setup
• Testfeed
• Test Label
• Default setup
• Update PC-card
• Reboot
Intermec Shell is factory-installed in the printer's permanent
memory (device "rom:"). This implies that if you insert a memory
card with another startup fi le before you turn on the printer, or
if there is a startup fi le stored in the printer's permanent memory
(device "c:"), this startup fi le will be used instead of Intermec
Shell (see chapter 4;"Startup Files").
