Serial 1
Serial 2
- Yes
2 Format string String. Length <=200. “” No
A 1024 character log is kept of printed data for each port. This data is read 1 line at
a time and is cleared after the first read. To read this data use PRT?0 or PRT?1.
When there is no more data, an empty string (“”) is returned. If the port number is
left off, the print ID of the last print ticket is sent.
A custom string can be printed using the PRT command. If the custom string is to
be sent from the same port that the PRT command is sent to, no reply is sent other
than the print output. Otherwise 0 CRLF is returned as per normal. This command
is not compatible with the CTS connection on Serial 2. Sending a PRT command
without the port number specified, is the same as pressing the <PRINT> key.
