Command Function
To allow the ability to print sequential fields (text, bar codes) where all
incrementing is done within the printer. Up to eight different sequential fields can
be specified per label. Sequencing is effective for up to 99-digit numeric data
within each field.

Sequential Numbering

Number of times to repeat the same data (0001-9999)
Plus or minus symbol (+ for increments; - for decrements)
Value of step for sequence (0001-9999)
Number of digits for sequential numbering (01-99). The first
incrementing character position starts after the positions exempted
from sequential numbering as specified in ee. If these digits are left
out the default is 8.
Number of digits free from sequential numbering (00-99) starting with
the right most position. If these digits are left out, the defaault is 0.

Decrementing

In this example, the right most (least significant) three digits would
not decrement and the next four would decrement.
Preceding the starting value to be incremented or decrement.
