This command opens a downloaded file and establishes the file handle. Up to two file handles are
supported, thus only up to two files can be opened simultaneously. The file to be opened should be
downloaded prior to using this command.
When opening a file, the firmware will search automatically to see if the file exists in the on board flash
memory or extended memory card. If the file does not exist then the printer will create this file.
