Class Series 2 Programmer’s Manual 23
STX J Set Pause for Each Label
This command causes the printer to pause after printing each label. It is intended for
use with the peel mechanism or tear bar when the Present Sensor option is not installed.
After removing the printed label, the PAUSE Key must be pushed in order to print the
next label. (The printer must be reset to clear the <STX>J command.)
Syntax:
<STX>J
STX K Extended System-Level Commands
This is an expansion of the System-Level Command structure; see Extended System-
Level Commands for more information.
STX k Test RS-232 Port
This command instructs the printer to transmit the Y character from the printer’s RS-232
port. (Failure to receive Y could indicate an interfacing problem.)
Syntax:
<STX>k
Printer response:
Y
STX L Enter Label Formatting Command Mode
This command switches the printer to the Label Formatting Command Mode, where the
printer expects to receive only Record Structures and Label Formatting Commands.
Immediate, System-Level, and Font Loading commands will be ignored until the label
formatting mode is terminated with E, s, or X, (see Label Formatting Commands for
additional information).
Syntax:
<STX>L
