This command is invalid unless the auto-cutter is installed and it is turned to ON. Since the initialization value is 01 (one sheet), if the auto-cutter is ON, each label sheet will be cut automatically. When the label is cut by using the paper cut command (o), this must be set to 0 (zero) sheet. Input data below represents that the same contents of the labels are printed ten sheets and cut out every two sheets.

If dot size in vertical direction is doubled or tripled, the maximum printing length (printing range) will be doubled or tripled. The following is that dot size in horizontal direction is set to 1 and dot size in vertical direction is set to 1.

On completion of printing, command interpreter is switched to system level interpreter and system level commands are valid. Printer waits for label format command input until it receives the commands such as E and X, so printer cannot advance to the next operation. Caution Entering previous-defined field character string into global table Code Function G Enters a previous-defined label format character string into global table, allocating one character in alphabetical order from A to P. Reading of character string stored in the global table is executed with command "S. " Input data below represents that data of character string "ABC" is stored in the global table with font 9 and fonts 9 and 5 are printed.

Input data below represents that data "ABC" is specified with units in metric system. Changing units from metric to inch system Code Function n Changes units for all-distance-specified-command-parameters from 0. 1 mm to 0. 01 inch. With reset, units are set to inch system. 1-59 Setting printable area speed Code Setting Pa a C or D E or F G or H I or J K or L M or N O 1-8 One alphanumeric character. 2. 0 inches (50. 8 mm)/sec 3. 0 inches (76. 2 mm)/sec 4. 0 inches (101. 6 mm)/sec 5. 0 inches (127. 0 mm)/sec 6. 0 inches (152. 4 mm)/sec 6. 8 inches (172. 7 mm)/sec 8. 0 inches (203. 2 mm)/sec 1. 0 ­ 8. 0 inches (in increments of 1. 0 inch) Speed setting higher than the specifications of each model is not available.

Input data below represents that data without specification of space between characters and data with specification of 10 to space between characters are set and printed. [. . . ] In case of the continuous paper, specify the label length with the C command. Difference between the maximum and minimum values of the sensor reading voltage is 0. 8 V or more. Sensor adjustment and paper characteristic verification (voltage verification) can be performed with the Maintenance mode.
