5.8 Print
Printing a label
The command initiates the printing out of the contents of the printer’s
graphic buffer. After the completion of this action it is automatically
cleared and ready for generating a new label. After the end of the
printing session the last label is pushed out of the printer in away so
that it is completely visible and ready for use.
Format: P[m,]n
m The number of identical labels which will be printed
out. The entering of a value greater than 1 is an option
when working with a form, which uses counters. After
printing a certain number of labels the counters
automatically change their values according to the
rules set when they were defined and the new group of
labels is printed with the new values.
Possible value: 1 - 1000.
n The number of absolutely identical labels for print.
The sum quantity for this command will be m*n.
Possible value: 1 - 1000.
The command with only one parameter is used for printing a label
resulting from command, directly sent to printer. The active form is
ignored. The parameter indicates the number of identical labels de-
manded.
Example: P2,3
This command will print 6 labels of which the second 3
will have new counter values.
Resuming interrupted printing
If the last printing command has been completed successfully the
command will activate no action on the part of the printer.
If, however, the last printing session has been interrupted you may
activate its continuation from the point of interruption in order to get
the required number of labels.
Format: PC
5.7 Clearing the memory
Clearing the operational memory
The command leads to the deletion of the whole information loaded
into the printer, including forms, graphics, and fonts. All adjustments
to the printer, accessible via commands acquire their default values.
Format: M
De-activation of the current form and deletion of the graphic
buffer
The command clears the memory where the image for printing is
generated and places the printer in the mode “working without active
forms”. The command may be used after an error when there are
suspicions that the graphic buffer has not been cleared or if we wish
to generate an image directly via commands and without the use of
forms.
Format: N

50mm/c printing speed, print density 8, label length 200 dots, initial
offset by X and Y 0, hour format - M:H:S,
