86 ESim v5.12 for EasyCoder PD4—Programmer’s Reference Manual
Chapter 7—Commands
O – Options Select
Description is command is used to enable or disable various sensors and
the cutter.
Syntax O[S[,N[,D[,Cnnn|Cb]]]]
Parameters S Enable reverse gap sensing.
N Disable label taken sensor.
D Disable ribbon end sensor
Cnnn Print nnn labels (1-255) before cutting.
Cb Print batch before cutting.
Parameters can be entered in any order. Default: ON
Remarks S: Reverse Gap Sensing Enabled
is parameter reverses the operation of the label gap sensor so
it interprets a blockage of light as a gap between labels or similar.
Before using the S parameter, make sure to load the EasyCoder
PD4 printer with the appropriate type of media. By default, the
sensor will interpret blockage of light as a label or similar.
N: Label Taken Sensor Disable
When the label taken sensor is enabled, the communication to
the printer will be BUSY as long as the sensor detects a label in
the outfeed slot. (Does not work with a cutter—use ON to dis-
able the sensor.)
D: Ribbon End Sensor Disable
e ribbon end sensor (thermal transfer models only) detects
reflections from the trailing silvery part of the transfer ribbon.
Direct ermal Mode: If the ribbon end sensor is disabled
parameter, density settings (see D command) are interpreted via a
table that gives an optimized printout for direct thermal printing.
ermal Transfer Mode: If the ribbon end sensor is enabled, an
error will occur if no reflection is detected. e density settings
(see D command) are interpreted via a table that gives an opti-
mized printout for thermal transfer printing.
C: Cutter Enabled
If option C is enabled, cutting will be performed after print.
Commands JF and JB will be disabled, but their values will
remain stored in memory.
If option C is disabled, no cutting will be performed after print.
Commands JF and JB will be enabled. Command f will be dis-
abled but its value will remain stored in memory.
