Syntax
<STX>J
Behavior
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.)
STX k Test Communication Port
This command instructs the printer to transmit the Y character from the printer's port
that received this command. (Failure to receive Y could indicate an interfacing
problem.)
Syntax
<STX>k
Behavior
Printer response:
l
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 more information).
Syntax
<STX>L
STX M Set Maximum Label Length
This command instructs the printer move media this distance in search of the top-
ofform (label edge, notch, black mark, etc.) before declaring a paper fault. A paper
fault condition can occur if this setting is too close (within 0.1 inch [2.54 mm]) to the
physical length of the label. Therefore, it is a good practice to set this command to 2.5
to 3 times the actual label length used. The minimum value should be at least 5” (127
mm).

<STX>Mnnnn
